Choreographic Statement:
The Djembe is a Malinke instrument. It is presently one of the most popular drums in North America. To be a Djembefola is to embody the essence of this instrument. Not everyone who plays a Djembe is a Djembefola, because it requires love, passion, and spiritual connection.

BaKari E. Lindsay, Jase Cozmic, Sarah Anthony, Charmaine Headley, Junia Mason, Debbie Y. Nicholls-Skerritt, Allassane Sarr
Music:
Baba Toure, Allassane Sarr
