Balafon Marimba Ensemble Concert History

The five men and three women of the Oregon-based Balafon Marimba Ensemble take a high energy, multilayered, approach to the music of Africa and the Caribbean. Performing on home-made instruments, the group roars with a highly-percussive intensity. While nearly half of their material comes from Zimbabwe, the ensemble's repertoire includes tunes from Zaire, Latin America and the Caribbean.
