Projects
A band featuring Talking Drums from West Africa, created by Beninese drummer and percussionist Ejaspapa Gnonlonfoun for Toope Ajoyo – Fête de la Musique 2024. Since then, a dozen musicians are continuously exploring the world of this fascinating instrument and West African polyrhythms, preparing new collaborations in 2025!
Would you like to immerse yourself in the culture of West African percussion and push the boundaries of traditional music genres? Join the rehearsals to learn and play polyrhythms on Talking Drums and other traditional portable percussion instruments from Benin.
