- Kakatsitsi -
Master Drummers from Ghana
Kakatsitsi are a group of traditional drummers, dancers and singers from
the Ga tribe of Southern Ghana. Their music takes traditional rhythms
and chants from their own Ga tradition and those of a variety of other
West African cultures,
rearranging them in a modern and accessible way.
The group have
developed a particularly strong educational dimension, whereby
they visit local schools in the week running up
to a performance to teach a few simple rhythms, chants and dances.
They then invite the children along to the final performance, where
they join
in with a final communal finalé, demonstrating what they
have learned during the week.
