A true cultural ambassador for his country, Doudou N'Diaye Rose is today considered as one of the great musician of this century. Guardian of the tradition, but also an untiring innovator, this virtuoso of percussion is now perceived as a true conductor, just as the great conductors of symphony orchestras (he conducts bands from 20 to 100 drummers). He has a passion for sounds and for harmonies, he loves to make his group reverberate like a tremendous rhythmical machine, which he controls with the hands of a master, using his baton to guide the musicians with an irresistible authority and natural charisma. He weaves together an unbelievable number of rhythmical phrases, superimposing them in a complex and elusive pattern, which reaches our ears as a kind of fabulous melody. He creates real symphonies of drums. For the last 15 years, he has enjoyed an international career. He has traveled the planet, given fantastic concerts, and composed and collaborated with various famous artists.
