WELCOME! BIENVENIDO!
ASHÉ is a word of many meanings: blessings, energy, power, confidence -- people, objects, music and ideas – if they’ve got “Ashé” they’ve got energy and power in the purest sense. In Cuba they call it "aché" and in Brazil "axe". This word is used both in Africa and Tibet, with the same meanings. ASHÉ RECORDS is here to bring you music "con aché"!

The majestic sound of Odetta's voice transports us through these universal Christmas Spirituals. As Odetta said, "These are the songs that helped us get over, under and through." Although Beautiful Star is wonderful all year 'round, it is especially during the Christmas season that these songs really come to life. It is our sincere wish that these songs and Odetta's voice will transport us, bringing peace and joy to all who hear it.

This recording of authentic Afr-Cuban ceremonial music, invoking Elegua, the god of the crossroads, of beginnings and endings, celebrates the African diaspora as it survives in Cuba to this day. Lazaro Ros, Cuba's most famous singer of the sacred songs of the orisha, spent his life preserving and presenting the African tradition as it remains very much alive in the Caribbean's largest island.
