Festival de danses et masques gouro 

J'adore ton message. Beaucoup ne comprennent pas la richesse culturel qu'on a en Côte d'ivoire.

Ive heard this several times before, but when you start to recognise the beats then it kinda falls apart. Not less impressive in any way. But it is what it is. If you know the track then youre not in control.. You just respond

@@martinwinther6013 You're right, I love the communication between the dancer and musician and how they just react to each other, the hand signals work very well too

@@pepemapache It is the core of REAL music and REAL dance. The interaction. You let the rythm take over. And nomatter where it comes from and where it goes to(is it the music that run the dance, or dance that run the music) - Then its just one of the most impressive styles around. Its up there with jitterbug, breakdance, ballet and that cossack soldiers dance. Jawdropping skills..

Black culture is not serving Black people.

Absolutely Incredible!

Very true. If you focus on the music, particularly the percussive part of it, and the leg movements, they are very closely connected. I assume the musicians are taking their lead from the dancer, but the reaction time to change their playing to match, is just about zero. I guess they are following well established patterns, and it isn't quite Beethoven's 5th, but even so....

@@alexanderSydneyOz Yeah, like in most Afrian Dances there is a solid base of percusive patterns and moves that go along and are shared my most dancers/musicians then they take that base and are able to switch it up on the fly because they all know it aswell as special patterns only a group of musicans and a dancer know. These sort of masked dances are very endemic of central and western Africa with each region having it's own twist. The Ivoirian Gouro Might be the most technically impressive though. But if you're interested here is the version from my country, Gabon ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-n1kh502sGxA.html&ab_channel=MADARAKYUBI Very close to what you would see in Cameroon, Congo or Angola (obviously, as they're basically the same ethnic groups as us) These things used to scare the shit our of me and they'd sometimes beat up nosy teens haha

Minenhle Ntuli if you come to Côte-d’Ivoire 🇨🇮 west Africa it’s mask zahouli

U have my invitation my brother to come to my beautiful country ivoire coast so we can organize special shows for u with love 😂

Ivory coast, this looks exactly like Igala of Nigeria.

Jeez sphe. You see what i was saying on Facebook. You're even here in zaouli videos!! I'd like to watch it live too. Let's get tickets to Ivory Coast then.

Authentically from the 1950's.....

All wrong

This is not really ancient, in this form it started in the 1950s.

This exact dance may be from the 50s but the tradition has ancient roots. Many ethnic groups and tribes throughout the sub Tropical and Savanna regions of Africa from Senegambia all the way to Zimbabwe, have similar 'masquerades' and dances. They are tied to ancient African spirituality, cults and secret societies.

Разве это ещё не правда?

Come to ivory coast 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪

Thats the kind of village that raise cultural people

So you were born in Africa then??? Otherwise you would be an AMERICAN!

Jessie Jackson started the whole "African American" crap. Aren't we all from Africa originally?

@@zigzagbigbag some evolved more than others

@@sycodad4483 let us have our culture racist white boy it's not hurting you

@@sycodad4483 look in the mirror you have not evolved cognitively, mentally ,spiritually etc etc.. grow up little dipshit. Quit being a trolling Thug on social media

It is art but also ritual

@@TheOneanjel It was invented in the 1950's

Please, is this Malawi? This performance is like our Igala masquerade here in Nigeria

@Afro Warrior I was too little back then, we would go watch when I visited my grandparents in the village. I do remember being scared but curious at the same time.

@@unitedigalakingdomtv8432 The video isn't Malawi. But it has shown me how all Africans have the same roots. Would love to learn more about the origins dances

Search for ”Malawi Gule wamkulu”

@@unitedigalakingdomtv8432 they are. speaking French and the dance is from Ivory Coast

I guess it’s a five and take sometimes it seems the dancer moves to the rhythm of the drummers, sometimes it seems the drummers change the beat to what the dancer is doing.

I m from ivoiry coast and it is a local dance from ethnic group "gouro " .They usualy playing to increase harvest.

The drummers beat to the dancers moves typically. They reherse certain cues. It's a show not happenstance.

The drummers follow the dancer.

DJê est l'un des masques les plus puissants au pays gouro donc il ne sort pas en journée lui sort seulement que la nuit, et d'autre encore, et pourquoi à sinfra on vous appel pas comme chez nous à zuenoula exemple, djê bi ou djê lou ?
