Chowtal - it’s one of the most interactive and joyous types of music you’ll ever witness. Chowtal is signature Indo-Caribbean, often a blend of male and female voices sitting in a competitive circle, unafraid to shout out to the heavens in a celebratory spirit. The word “chowtal,” which likely originated in the mid-to-late 1800s among indentured workers in India, is actually the name of a “taal” or meter in Indian classical music. It is a type of folk song hailing from North India’s Bhojpuri area. Chowtal is sung in the weeks leading up to Holi, or as most Indo-Caribbeans refer to it, Phagwah, after the Bhojpuri month of Phagun. While most chowtals sing the praises of gods and goddesses like Ram and Hanuman, Shiva and Parvati, or Radha and Krishna, not all are steeped in Hinduism.
