  If you think that it’s impossible to reach them, then you haven’t met Cherry yet!

  Charles Magnus Ven Polypheme—known as Ven—is the youngest son of a long line of famous shipwrights. He dreams not of building ships, but of sailing them to far-off lands where magic thrives.

  A singer calls out to the crowd. 
  An electric bass thumps out a beat. 
  Horns blare and strings swirl. 
  These are the sounds of R & B. 
  
  Rhythm and blues music evolved from all sorts of sounds: swinging jazz, gritty blues, and African American spiritual songs. The music's smooth mix of styles made it unique, and its passionate performers made it a sensation. Ever since Ray Charles hit the charts in the 1950s, R & B fans have held it down on dance floors. And R & B singers have belted out messages of love and calls for social change.
