Famoudou dances Dundunba

Postby the kid » Mon May 18, 2009 11:03 am

Djembe, Dance and theatre from Famoudou Konate. with his sons Ibro,Diarra, Billy Konate and the griotte Hadja Sire Doumbouya





Whats the story with the dance when Famoudou pretends to have a broken foot or injury. A lot of guys do this acting while dancing. Does It go back to some old story about a famous warrior or something? Or is it just a dance to respect the older dancers. Or they just having a laugh?
