Wala-Wala (Numan)

[Afoba]

Hello everybody,
Bubudi asked for recordings of what I call Wala-Wala (the name from Kouroussa, I heard the name "Sabar" several times, too d;-) ) or Numan.
I got some videos with the girls dancing to at a Dya fête or a wedding party, but I have to look for clips that are short enough to post or I have to cut them. Both actions take some time.
So here you get a cool version of my own band Tolonba:

and a mask version (Numan) from Gberedu that I had put on youtube some time ago and nearly nobody was interested in d;-). I think the mask version is the older one and they took it over to all sorts of female fêtes in the last 10 (15, 20?) years. That night they started playing with one Sangban, one Kensedeni and one Djembé, but due to the fact that it was at the beginning of a Soli night and several groups were there, every instrument was doubled after a while:



Have a nice time,
Daniel
