Most people in Mali have specific family names that are derived from the names of their fathers (patronymics) and that classify them in ethnic and sociological categories. For example, “Diarra” and “Coulibaly” are the names of the two royal dynasties of the Kingdom of Ghana, while “Diallo,” “Ba,” “Bari,” and “Cissé” are noble Peul patronymics. Discuss dos and don’ts for SOF soldiers Scenario: Amadou is writing a short list of dos and don’ts to hand out to the next SP team who will come to Senegal. As a class, go over each bullet carefully. Discuss any confusion that could arise if interpreted incorrectly. What surprises you? Bienvenue au Sénégal. J’espère que vous allez passer un agréable moment dans notre pays.

  • African Popular Music Ensemble Tuesdays (7:20 PM-9:10 PM) at the School of Music Dr
    1 FALL 2021 MUN 1xxx - section TBA World Music Ensemble – African Popular Music Ensemble Tuesdays (7:20 PM-9:10 PM) at the School of Music Dr. Sarah Politz, [email protected] Office: Yon Hall 435 Office hours: TBA Credits: 1.0 credit hours The African Popular Music Ensemble will specialize in the popular music of the African continent, with a special focus on Afrobeat, highlife, soukous, African jazz, and the brass band traditions of Africa and the diaspora. Together we will listen to, perform, and arrange music from the works of Fela Kuti (Nigeria), Salif Keita (Mali), Hugh Masekela, Abdullah Ibrahim, Miriam Makeba (South Africa), Mulatu Astatke (Ethiopia), and the Gangbe Brass Band of Benin. Instrumentation will vary based on personnel each semester, and will typically include a rhythm section, horn section, and vocal soloists. The ensemble will also draw on the participation of faculty performers, as well as guest artists specializing in African popular music from the community and beyond. These collaborations will contribute to the diversity of musical and cultural experiences related to Africa that are available to students throughout the semester. Course Objectives The African Popular Music Ensemble is dedicated to learning African culture through musical performance. After completion of this course, students will be able to perform in a variety of African popular music styles on their instrument. These skills will be developed through a combination of listening to recordings, developing skills in listening and blending within the ensemble, and individual study and practice outside of rehearsals. Students who wish to develop their skills in improvisation will have many opportunities to do so.

  • Growing Into Music in Mali: Perspectives on Informal Learning
    Growing into music in Mali: perspectives on informal learning from West Africa By Lucy Durán, SOAS, University of London Chapter in Economidou, Natassa, and Stakelum, Mary (eds). European Perspectives on Music Education vol. 4: every learner counts. Innsbruck: Helbling Verlag (2015), pp. 49-64 Photo caption Adama Diarra (balafon, right) leads a rehearsal at home with his children and nephews including Waly Coulibaly (balafon, left), and Thierre Diarra (djembe, left). Photo: Lucy Duran, Bamako, March 2015 Abstract Despite the fact that Mali is famous for its musical traditions, some of which date back to the 13th century, very little research has been done on the passing down of musical knowledge from one generation to the next. Yet surely this is a key to understanding how these oral musics have survived into the 21st century with such vigour. In this chapter I reflect on how children within specialist Malian musical families (jelis, also known as as griots) acquire musical skills. The chapter draws on many years of research in the region, particularly between 2009 to 2012 when I engaged in a film-based project entitled ‘Growing into music – musical enculturation in oral traditions’. There is a small but growing ethnomusicological literature documenting aspects of childhood musicality in Africa (see Rice 2003, Campbell & Wiggins 2013), but almost nothing on Mali except for passing comments in Charry (2000). I am inspired by the idea of ‘enskilment’, a term from anthropology, first used by Gísli Pálsson in his study of apprenticeship in Icelandic fishing (Pálsson 1994), and since taken up by others including Tim Ingold (2000) and Trevor Marchand (2010, 2015) writing about the acquisition of artisanal skills.

  • Downloads Will Increase and Might Develop Into Another Source of Income
    Wolfgang Bender MUSIC FROM AFRICAN IMMIGRANTS IN EUROPE When writing about the music of African immigrants in Europe, one must first admit that it would be futile to try to provide a complete picture. It is necessary to offer an advance statement: African musicians and singers have contributed immensely to the musical culture of Europe. Since their first arrival in Europe, be it with the early folkloric show groups at world exhibitions in colonial times, until the beginning of the 21st century, much of it has gone unnoticed, while some of it has become known. A lot remains to be done to fully acknowledge this contribution. Even if it were possible, there has been no attempt at a complete survey of African music in Europe. Were such a survey to be undertaken, it would only be possible to draw an incomplete picture, or provide certain diverging pictures of the composition of music by African immigrants. Whether they live for a period of their lives or their whole life in Europe, we shall see that the most important difference among the African musicians and singers in Europe is whether they see themselves as part of their host societies, or whether they continue to feel part of the ‘original’ society which they have left. Musicians and singers may live in Europe for years and never relate very much to the European public while continuing to be creative despite being away from home. In contrast, others try to open up towards the local population, educating them, or at least trying to please them by detecting their expectations and consequently trying to meet them.

  • Médiagraphie MALI
    Bibliothèques d’Amiens Métropole Bibliothèque Louis Aragon - Espace Image et Son MUSIQUES et MUSICIENS du MALI Médiagraphie proposée à l’occasion du Festival d’Amiens, Musiques de jazz et d’ailleurs 26-29 septembre 2013 « Le Mali est l’un des poumons musicaux de notre planète. Qu’ils chantent, pincent des cordes ou caressent la peau d’un tambour, ses musiciens sont écoutés et admirés de leurs pairs à travers le monde depuis de nombreuses années. Certains d’entre eux, comme Rokia Traoré, Ballake Sissoko, Boubacar Traoré, Mamani Keita, ou Salif Keita ont écrit les plus belles pages de notre festival. Les projets joués cette semaine sont tous inédits à Amiens et témoignent de l’incroyable culture musicale d’un pays en voie de cicratisation. » Extrait du programme du Festival LE MALI, pays d’Afrique de l’Ouest, se trouve entre le monde arabe au nord et les peuples noirs au sud. Cette situation géographique en fait un pays d’une grande richesse ethnique et musicale. La tradition qui domine encore aujourd’hui est celle des Mandingues : leur empire (XIIIe – XVIIe siècle) connut son apogée au XIVe siècle. Il s’étendait entre le Sahara et la forêt équatoriale, l’océan Atlantique et la Boucle du Niger, soit sur les actuels Mali, Burkina Faso, Sénégal, Gambie, Guinée, Guinée-Bissau, Mauritanie et une grande partie de la Côte d’Ivoire. Il laisse un puissant héritage musical, source intarissable d’inspiration pour les musiciens modernes. Perpétué et enrichi par la caste des « djeli » (griots), attachée à celle des « horon » (nobles) – pour qui les griots sont les musiciens, généalogistes et conseillers – le fonds musical mandingue est un trésor raffiné de mélodies, de contes épiques accompagnés, selon les régions par divers instruments : n’goni (harpe), kora (harpe-luth), bala (xylophone), xalam (harpe), djembé (tambour à membrane), etc… Cette tradition ancestrale se transmet de père en fils – ou de mère en fille - dans les familles de griots comme les Kouyaté, les Diabaté et les Sissoko.

  • Lisa Lindblad Travel Design
    LISA LINDBLAD TRAVEL DESIGN February 2009 Extraordinary travel is magic often created in the simplest of terms. Dear Friends, 37 years ago this month I was driving across the face of Africa. I embarked in London with a group of ten travelers. Our destination was Kenya, and we had budgeted $800 and 8 months to complete the journey. Each of us had his own reason for being in Africa; mine was a broken heart. I was following a lover who had left me for the freedom of the road and the excitement of a front row seat on Angola’s Independence struggle. I went looking for one love and on that journey I found another — Africa, itself. On that long trip which sliced southward from the Mediterranean and then due East to the Indian Ocean, I saw landscapes and cultures I had no inkling existed. Yet, in a strange way, from the moment I landed on the continent, I felt surprisingly at home. The deep contentment I experienced when I touched foot to soil has never changed. Over the years, I have spent much time in North, East and Southern Africa. And yet I have never returned to West Africa — until now. While clients and friends were casting around this Christmas for last minute deals in the sunny Caribbean, I booked a ticket to Dakar, Senegal and then onwards to Bamako, Mali. Not a “travel designer” for nothing, I benchmarked my itinerary with Goree Island, Dakar, at the start and the Mosque of Djenné, Mali, at the close. Both sites, which have been on my wish list for years, provide a window into the dark and the light places of the human soul.

  • What Strategies for Sustainable Employment and Urban Development Planning ? Case Study : Bamako Preface
    Culture & Economic Performance What strategies for sustainable employment and urban development planning ? Case study : Bamako Preface Bamako is the capital city of Mali, a central African country with a population of 12 million people. The population of Bamako stands at 1.8 million people. Although it is landlocked and has no ocean coastline, Bamako is one of the country’s most important industrial and commercial hubs, core to the food trade, chemical trade and textiles trade. Two cultural sectors hold the monopoly in the country itself and its capital city: the arts and crafts industry (weaving, dyeing, cotton fabrics, shoemaking, goldsmiths/silversmiths…) and the performing arts (particularly traditional music). Due to internationally renowned artists, true ambassadors for a Malian culture that is inherently original, Bamako has recently grasped the potential for sustainable development that its cultural heritage represents. Increasingly popular as a tourist destination, going forward Bamako is deploying a strategy based on traditional Mandingue music (brought into focus by festivals and also due to Mali’s Diaspora), as well as on the arts and crafts industry, in order to achieve a twofold objective of both economic and social development. This is a recent strategy, and the city today has barely begun to infiltrate the flood of cultural exchanges on a global scale, particularly due to lack of funding for cultural production, which puts the brakes on commercialisation and hampers broadcasting information about high-end cultural products and services on an international level. Investors, faced with the risk of weak profitability from some projects, are effectively reluctant to finance cultural initiatives in a region where piracy and the black market are absolutely rife.

  • MORY KANTE a PARIS by Lucy Durán Published in the Griots Of
    MORY KANTE A PARIS By Lucy Durán Published in Folk Roots 175 (Jan/Feb 1998): 40-47 The griots of Mali and Guinea have their own way of talking: they call it "jelikan" - Jeli (griot) language. It's dense and full of metaphors and aphorisms and philosophical observations. Proverbs are its pepper. Proverbs allow for quite biting comments, without being specific. They're like a code to a whole way of lateral thinking. In jelikan, entire, meaningful conversations can be conducted purely as a series of proverbs. Backstage with Mory Kante at the annual Francophonie Trade Fair in London last March, waiting to introduce myself, I overheard him using a string of phrases like "an empty bag will not stand up", "the crocodile is immune to the water", and "the head of a rooster does not hide in a soup". I could see a couple of fans and journalists looking perplexed. Mory Kante the doyen of techno-kora music, author of Yeke yeke, the biggest African dance-floor track ever, seemed to be talking in riddles. This was the sort of talk I have come to expect from the older generation of Malian musicians living in Bamako, but not from someone who has lived for nearly fourteen years in Paris, and who is known as the "Ambassador of French music". I remembered reading a review in Melody Maker written in 1988, at the height of Kante's success: "unlike his Nigerian neighbour Fela Kuti, Kante doesn't give interviews backstage in his knickers, but instead dons a dapper white silk suit and silk scarf with a Pierre Cardin monogram and we adjourn to a restaurant for what turns out to be a journalist's nightmare - an interview with a man who speaks mostly in metaphors and hurried French..." (30.7.88) When it was my turn to say hello, he was polite but distracted, if not exactly hurried.
