Welcome and thanks to new Percussion Students — first Announcement of Weekend Workshop in Autumn 2022 — new Pricing for the Bandcamp Sugé .mp3 re-release — two Videos from the Berlin Cultural Carneval 2007/2013 — weekly Sunday Courses for West-African Dance (Afrodance at the Leipzig Hupfeldcenter 3 p.m. to 5 p.m.)

THIS IN SHORT: We thank all new musical students and friends that joined Alpha Oulare’s Djembé lessons on this Saturday, August, the 20st, 2022, for the first time: what mighty sound yet, when playing together in group. Now about three female and four male drum students might hopefully attend the weekly two-hour lesson regularly — — yet having been announced, but not as yet concrete in time: this Autumn’s two-day weekend workshop later in the year… Students and all interested musicians shall receive the opportunity to learn and perform special own compositions by Alpha Oulare then. Might the event become sound-recorded?

Alpha Oulare & Sugé (Berlin 2000ff.)

Here you can listen to the time-less work by Alpha Oulare and his year-2000 Ensemble Sugé : Alakhawonmaly!! DIEU sera avec nous!! GOD will help us!! —You still may purchase the album, best as digital copies of the original (!) tracks from BandCamp, by this supporting the artist and his family.

(This exclusive mix contains by intention an odd reverberation/echo effect — therefore, instead, you should consider to purchase the original tracks / whole album at fair price via BandCamp!) If the track should not be playable, we are to suppose missing Internet connectivity or a server/network problem at sides of the Internet Archive, U.S. California.
(Cover of the 2022 digital album re-release)

You will find a transcription of the album booklet’s liner notes at the referenced external webpages…
