A bélé is a folk dance and music from Martinique, St. Lucia, Dominica, Haiti, Grenada, Guadeloupe, and Trinidad and Tobago. It may be the oldest Creole dance of the creole French West Indian Islands, and it strongly reflects influences from African fertility dances. It is performed most commonly during full moon evenings, or sometimes during funeral wakes (Antillean Creole: lavèyé). The dance is also popular in Saint Lucia. In Tobago, it is thought to have been performed by women of the planter class at social events in the planters' great houses, and the dress and dance style copied by the enslaved people who worked in or around these houses [1]. The term bélé also refers to a kind of drum found on Haiti, Dominica, Martinique and Saint Lucia. (en) Le bèlè est une pratique musico-chorégraphique de Martinique qui mêle chant, musique, danse et conte. Sur son apparition en Martinique, deux hypothèses sont émises : * il est issu des affres de l'esclavage bien avant le marronnage et aurait subi différentes mutations au cours des siècles ; * il serait l'héritage laissé par les Marrons en fuite qui ont élu domicile dans les mornes loin des plantations martiniquaises. Ces hypothèses sont l'objet de travaux de recherche. C'est une tradition codifiée empreinte de syncrétisme, avec un contexte rituel sociétal important. (fr) |
