Mamady Keita / Djembefola

Mamady Keïta was born in the small village of Balandougou, Guinea, in the northeastern prefecture of Siguiri, near the border of Mali. His initiation to the djembe started at the early age of seven, under Karinkadjan Kondé, elder master djembefola of Balandugu, who initiated him to the secrets of the djembe. Keïta was educated in the traditions of his village, learning the history and music of the Malinke people. At the age of twelve, he became a member of the first regional federal ballet of Siguiri after Balanka Sidiki, a recruiter for the group, came to Balandugu looking for performers.
This recording was made at Keita home, San Diego in 2007.

    This is really one of the best video expressions of Mamady's playing and the nuance he has always brought to the voice of his drum. All the sounds are here, including lots of his signature "third slap," one of the most beautiful sounds ever created on a djembe. He'll always be the top in my book. RIP.

    in addition to all of this, his skill as a player is rivaled by his skill as a teacher. i have had the privilege of attending several of his workshops. he is truly a master.
