Schedule
// Fen Koro Percussion Group:
Our music consists of traditional West African rhythms and chants. Our instrumentation consists mostly of drums typical of the Hamana region of Guinea and the Malinke ethnic group living in this region: sangban, kenkeni, dununba and djembe. The pulsation of the drums combined with the singing will provide an exciting experience for those interested in and lovers of African rhythms.
The name of our band, Fen Koro, means 'root' in the language of the Malinke people who created the tradition of djembe playing. By this, we want to refer to the roots of the now widely known and popular djembe and the music world associated with djembe. The band was founded in 2022 by Zoli and the two Balázs, who had previously played in the Sanké Percussion Group and its predecessor, Sankolokan.
