NASSAU, Bahamas -- Who knew that conch salad could be so melodic? The music students at The College of The Bahamas and the faculty members who helped them create a new compilation of original and classic Bahamian melodies.
The result is a CD entitled Melodic Conch Salad, produced by the ensemble MUIN242, which will be launched on Friday, October 17th at 7:00 p.m. at the Bahamas National Trust, Village Road.
"The most rewarding part was hearing the final version in the studio. We could not believe what we accomplished," shares Lynden Sands, group member and second-year music major.
This is just one of the ways that demonstrates how students of The College are not only learning from the quality instruction for which the institution is known, but are using that knowledge to create and produce quality work themselves.
According to the students, the experience was fascinating.
"We could not believe what we had accomplished," Lynden recalls. "Overall, Melodic Conch Salad musically illustrates the process of making conch salad, from growing the vegetables to catching the conch to adding the perfect blend of spices."
