Senegal-born and LA-based master sabar percussionist and composer Aba Diop shares a striking performance while on tour. 🇸🇳 Coming from generations of griots, his music places sabar rhythms, traditionally used for healing, prayer, and celebration, at the very forefront of his sound as a lead voice, alongside jazz improvisers and griot singers alike. 🌍✨ Big thanks to @aba_diop_yermande_family for sharing this gem✨ #AbaDiop #Sabar #Senegal #WestAfricanMusic #Griot #AfricanDrumming #CultureThroug

A Sabar ensemble is an impressive sound, and the music and dance is often played at a frenetic speed  #sabar #africandrumming #percussion | African Drumming | Facebook
