do you know if Yamoussa Sylla´s father is dancing in this video? Because I know that his father was a director or dancer of this ballet. Thank you!

I agree with you, but at the same time, I do not agree. As long as it were with YOU only, it was lost...lost because mandingo music is music from AND to the people, so if no one ever publish a video like this, to the PEOPLE be able to see it, for free, to everyone be able to see ( many africans can´t buy an original dvd, for example...as well as many brasilians...), it would be actually, as I said, LOST. Thx.

Yes, this is a rare and special video, but it was not lost. I've had it since 1995 when I meet my husband who is a djembe player he introduced it to me.

This great and rare video was found by me, Pedro Mendes from Djembe Brasil in USA around 2003. This year, 2008, I sent one copy to Les Ballets Africains and its director is now selling it, so you can all have this one contacting me or contacting Les Ballets Africains.

Thx for this movie! I am student of social and cultural anthropology. And I'm searching for information about the beginnings of 'les ballets africains'. Do You have any further Information? About the 1950s? Any info would help me.
