About "Moussa Sylla. Balafon at Global Roots black history month event, Oct 22."
Part of Moussa's set for the Nottingham Global Roots black history month celebration day at the Marcus Garvey Centre in Nottingham. Starting with a short krin piece and struggling with the mic, even incorporating a cry for help (sadly not responded to by the sound engineer!) into his singing. This video demonstrates both his prowess as a player and the West African flexibility in adapting material to any particular audience. Starting with the Susu 'classic' Yankadi. The second song, Toumaranke, (Susu for 'outsider') can be bought on our bandcamp page https://toumaranke.bandcamp.com/
