Fascinatingly, the African balafon, which is considered the forerunner of all xylophones, and the European double bass merge into a surprisingly warm and harmonious sound fusion. Traditional melodies from West and South Africa are interwoven with their own compositions and lively jazz to create a refreshing and fun-filled journey of sound. This takes the audience on a musical journey from Berlin via Abidjan and Soweto to New York and back again.
