Shakura Ensemble featuring
Blanche Blacke and guest artist Glen Velez
Reviews:
“Pretty
inventive and entrancing, with ethnic percussion, joining cello,
stand-up bass and Blacke's fluid ululations form a timeless merge
that seem equally at home at a ritual or the chill-out room of
a modern rave.”
Jim DeRogatis,
Chicago Sun-Times
"Powerful
energy pours through Blanche Blacke's voice. My sense is that
she can really move groups into altered states...It is evident
that she understands well how to channel and dance with energy.”

"That Blanche
Blacke is a healer who can effectively use her voice to create
shifts in consciousness is clearly evident from her work "Spirit
Voices"
