I use some of your rythms for traditional dancing lessons, leads by a great Burkina dancer, Jérôme Kabore. Your vidéos are real golden mines, thanks a loooooooot for this precious legacy 👍🏻
Nice demonstration and lesson. Kakilambe can be somehow tricky to comprehend when it comes to understanding the correct pulsation. It can be easily rhythmicaly missinterpreted and percieved as 3/4 straight rhythm: /b-tt/s-bt/-ts-/, instead as type two ternary flow (4/3): /b-t/ts-/bt-/st-/. At least that's how it was in my case. :-)
yes thats right, thats a disadvantage 'outsiders' have of understanding and assimilating which after is overcome turns into an advantage of birds-eye view of the whole thing.
there are over 51 different songs that call out kalilambe ... the one you are laying down is common to mama d its a 6/8 or 12/8 but the other one is a 4/4 comon to west african we were taught in the cultural center in san deigo
