Mohamed Diaby - drums, percussion
Mohamed Diaby is a widely-acclaimed master musician from Guinea, West Africa. He and his ensemble give rousing performances of the traditional music and dance/acrobatics from that region. Mohamed is also an adept teacher of Guinea-style African drum and dance, with 25 years experience teaching students of varying ages and ability levels. Currently, Mohamed is based in Western New York, and is frequently heard performing with Buffalo's wonderful Slyboots Circus. He travels throughout this region, the US, Canada, Mexico, and Europe teaching drum and dance and promoting the music and culture of Guinea. For this special solo performance, Mohamed will be accompanied by Buffalo's own master drummer and longtime collaborator Ringo Brill.
Hallwalls Music Program is made possible through public funds from the New York State Council on the Arts, a state agency and a grant from the Cullen Foundation.
