Over the years, Philadelphia has been a fertile home for music created by Latin, Caribbean, African, European and Asian immigrants and their descendants, as well as African Americans and other native-born Philadelphians who have adopted the music of the developing and traditional worlds as their own. Today high-level cultural venues such as
International House
,
The Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts
, and
The Painted Bride Art Center
and
The Keswick Theatre
offer shows from top world music and dance performers. And the
Felton Supper Club
,
The Trocadero
, the
Theater of Living Arts
, the
Tin Angel
and the
North Star Bar
often play host to touring Latin, African, Caribbean or Celtic acts.
