Moussa Bolokada Condé

Unpar­al­leled jenbé genius set for residencies

Moussa Bolokada Condé teaches the jenbé and dunun drum­ming tra­di­tion of his peo­ple. An acclaimed mas­ter of his instru­ments and the cul­ture from which they emerge, Bolokada is well-versed in impart­ing his knowl­edge to stu­dents at all lev­els, from ele­men­tary to college.

In the video above Bolokada worked with World Music stu­dents at IPFW, in Fort Wayne, IN. Below, his work with Tai­wanese stu­dents is evident. 

TRIAAC wants to dis­cuss how we can bring this genius of the jenbé to your stu­dents to enhance their music and world cul­ture edu­ca­tion while bring­ing them the great joy of the tra­di­tional Malinké per­cus­sion. Con­tact us.
