Epizo Bangoura 2016 African Drum ‘n’ Dance Camp Wrap - October 2nd to 8th saw a week of drumming and dancing fun at at the Yarrawarra Aboriginal Cultural Centre, Corindi Beach on the New South Wales Mid-North Coast. Epizo, the renown drum and dance master form Guinea, West Africa, along with brother Sibo introduced the drummers to a frenzied array of drumming breaks on djembe and doun doun for the tradition Mandingue rhythms of Soli, Tiriba, Sofa and Mirifore, along with the traditional accompaniments. There was plenty for the dancers to get into as well and the week was wound up with a furious performance for some lucky local residents who surprised us with a sudden late entry half way during the show. They quickly became eager participants, with cameras flashing left and right before joining the dancers and showing off their best moves. Thanks to Epizo, Sibo, Yacou, Rebekah, the cooks and everybody who came together to make this such a magical week. Bring on next year! By the way, you may be interested in joining Epizo on his annual drum and dance trip to Guinea in February. Please contact Rebekah at [email protected] for more info.
