Twenty-One Sabar Rhythms brings together the extended Doudou N'Diaye Rose family, masters of Wolof drum music, for an electrifying exploration of Senegalese percussion. Recorded at the evocative Lac Rose near Dakar in February 2020, this album captures the vibrant energy and deep tradition of a griot lineage that has shaped West African rhythm for generations.
Released by Honest Jon's Records, this collection showcases twenty-one distinct sabar rhythms developed within the legendary Rose family’s repertoire, including modern creations like "Bench Mi"—inspired by the communal spirit under the Baobab tree. Funded in part by a major cultural foundation, Twenty-One Sabar Rhythms is a powerful testament to living musical heritage, offering listeners a rare immersion into centuries-old traditions reimagined for today.
