Dr Snezhina Gulubova
Ethnomusicologist and PhD, Music in Cuba and the Diaspora
Hello, I am Snezhina.
I am a storyteller, ethnomusicologist and performer specialising on Cuba with a PhD on Music in Cuba and the Diaspora awarded from Royal Holloway, University of London. I research the relationship between spaces, sounds and socioeconomics since 2010 on Havana’s music scene, profession and industry. I further study the emergent London Cuban music and dance scenes, and their relationship with Havana. I investigate the image of “the street” as the home of Cuban music and the reinvention of Cuba’s African cultural and music heritage. I am also Co-Founder of the female Afro-Cuban percussion and vocals project “Alma de Tambor”.
