mamady keita and bolokada condé quebec 2012 PLAY "MISHIMA" (solo improv by two great master)

[@SuperDirtPig]

Never gets old, fantastic after all these years woohoooooooo 🤗

[@yellodread]

Mamady plays in the rhythm like a fish swims in water. Fluid, quick, darting here and there, shifting tone and tempo like a minnow eluding prey. Mamady rightfully deserves the title of grandmaster Fola. His flawless technique takes a back seat to his musicality, melody, timing, dynamics and sheer musical expression. It's amazing how he plays around the downbeat and still manages to stay locked in the groove. Grandmaster Fola Keïta is one of those rare musicians who never had to learn music to play music. He was born with it inside of him and the drum is his means of communicating his message to the world. To see and listen to him play is to hear him tell stories. One of a kind Fola who to me is one of the trinity of Grandmasters: Keïta, Konaté and Coulibaly.

I am 66 years young and just starting to play. How I wish I had started a long time ago! Such a simple yet complex instrument, and the pure talent of these true masters is such an inspiration!! They are having so much fun playing together. I have been calling the djembe the "fun drum", and I really believe that. Awesome video people!! Thank you!

[@hanna4958]

I'ts like listen and talking and understanding and spirit!

[@lestrum]

I started when I was 63. I empathize.Now 4 years on, in a group that met at the senior center, and participate in Meetup circles But the truth probably is that was just not meant to happen at least for me until then. I will grow and get as good as I can but understand the limitations from starting so late. I would say just learn all you can and try not to compare yourself too much to this kind of virtuosity as it can be inspirational but discouraging. Just have fun with it and its a great way to bond with others.

66 years young 😂 I like that I like that

Rest in peace Mamady, I'll return again soon to remind myself that humanity has gems like all of you sharing this amazing part of it.

[@sweetbeat7]

Never get tired of watching these 2

[@Rhythmhousedrums]

Love that djembe Bolo is playing. These guys are awesome together. I'm fortunate to have done workshops with them both.

[@Tammarrah100]

I played this video for graduate students at Drew University. We talked about healing mental illness with the drum. It was a major hit.

[@OldStudentNS]

OMG. This is soooo Incredible. The quality of sound. The temporal acuity. The swing/grooooove. The showmanship. Show me something better. Please. You can't!

[@juanjosejimenezpena7070]

Sin duda el Djembe-Master mas chulo q he visto. No me canso de verlo. Buenisimo...!!!

[@MZ-uv3sr]

This is so so fabulous on so many levels, but you know what really makes it...the space. Both of these guys...they leave the space. They make you wait for it, they play around with it, tease with it, play with the time of it. Some serious masters of the art. I've heard a lot of drummers both of djembe and dumbekl, that may have the licks..., but they so so the the space so so full of constant notes it looses all that makes it great.

[@happynappy348]

Omg I wish I was there what an amazing time this must have been to witness Mamady and Bolokada this just confirm how much I neeeeeddddddd to start back drumming, I miss it all drumming and dancing there's just something about the call of the drums. I've seen these videos before but something led me to look it up today and listen and enjoy it yet again, it never gets old...

[@vicm5277]

What makes this performance so great is their ability to convey complex emotions through their drumming. They are truly communicating through music. I mean, music in itself is just sound. Its our experience of music that makes it meaningful and beautiful. A musician who can convey his emotions well through music to his audience is a really great musician.

[@AnglaguburuLight]

Big thanks, I can not imagine life without a Djemba!!! Love and Blessing ❤

[@kevhowitt]

Wow, had a smile on my face after the first minute..

[@silvasocial83]

thanks you so much for sharing this. This is what djembe and malinke culture is all about!

[@bakarykora6305]

The fact of the matter is that those that still try to divide us here are not developed enough to understand that we should have already transcended those lower thoughts here on earth and instead have our eyes on the future of humanity allowing our collective efforts into the realm of the heavens into outer space, the only viable future for woman and man.

[@senyfofana8749]

2💩💗💩💗🌋

[@Samakoro]

It's just magic and wonderfull to see how they both just enjoy so much to be playing with each other..Both grand masters I'd pay a lot to see the continuation lol...When it stops Bolokada is just incredibly flying...Can't imagine how it continues but with the biggest musical orgasm :D Thanks so much for sharing this,guys,although painfull cut at the end,but way better than nothing ;) If someday I have the oportunity,I may try to get them together to play some just to have the option to enjoy it live!

hola lo que puedemos notar en este video aparte que son bueno tocando, es que las dos parte del celebro trabaja con total independencia,con una mano puede tocar y con la otra podia escrivire y es por eso que debemos educare nuestro hijo a las musica, asi desarrolla su mente

Spettacolare amore incondizionato

[@bakabeyond]

Put "Kopolo" in the youtube search and look for the track by Orchéstre Baka Gbiné to see how good African 3s (or 9/8 rhythm) can sound.

[@dumdummy57]

un grand moment de plaisir ! Merci M. Lacoste. Où était-ce ?

[@raicha91]

[@joannabebel9079]

Sounds amaziiiing!

[@alphonseahumani3345]

I love to drummer all day

[@MagicAdventurer]

Mamady's face of joy while Bolokada is doing his magic solo on last minute says it all.So beautifoul how they both enjoy playing together. Sad your memory ran out of memory then arghh xd Nobody else was recording? :-P Again,thanks to share mate..Pure magic these 11minuts

[@danielking545]

They serve two purposes. First, they have tiny metal rings on them that rattle when you play the drum, giving it a "snare drum" effect. You can't really hear it very well in the video, though. The other purpose is just for decoration.

[@aminatafatima4745]

Bravo! Love ....love

[@alphonseahumani3345]

wow i love this how can i be like you

[@Tucknrollgrampa]
