Reichhold Center Presents: 'Playing Ring: A Musical Journey into Quelbe'
This original Reichhold production pays tribute to the official music of the U.S. Virgin Islands: Quelbe. This indigenous "scratch band" music originated here in the 17th and 18th centuries and has spread throughout the Caribbean. Come hear the Virgin Islands' greatest Quelbe performers including Lashing Dogs, Stanley & the Ten Sleepless Knights, Koko & the Sunshine Band, and Jamesie & the All Stars. They'll be on-stage with the Virgin Islands' best quadrille dancers.
Playing Ring: A Musical Journey into Quelbe will appear Saturday, Feb. 4, at 8 p.m., at the Reichhold Center on St. Thomas. To buy tickets, call the box office at 693-1559 or go on line at
