█ . │▓ █
█ . │▓ USA: World Discoveries July 2004 the group takes a great leap forward with █
█ . │▓ a couple of personnel changes very professional now. The group vocals are █
█ . │▓ truly wonderful. This is a band to watch out for!...African World Music █
█ . │▓ ... Full Descriptionof the very best! Nominated for the prestigious: █
█ . │▓ German World Music prize Ruth 2006 and the BBC award 2005. Bandleader █
█ . │▓ Tormenta Jobarteh, the ôWhite Griotö, was awarded 1st prize of ôThe best █
█ . │▓ storyteller in Germany Award 2005ö competition.The bandÆs name is its █
█ . │▓ program: Jobarteh- Kunda (Clan) is a family of seven musicians, of which █
█ . │▓ each member brings different musical roots to the band. Tormenta Jobarteh █
█ . │▓ and his band presents unique and absolutely authentic world music █
█ . │▓ utilizing traditional and modern instrumentation with beautiful █
█ . │▓ multi-voice harmonies and exciting dance rhythms.The history of this █
█ . │▓ project, the outcome of a long maturation process, is as fascinating and █
█ . │▓ exceptional as the bandÆs sound.The bandÆs leader, Tormenta Jobarteh, grew █
█ . │▓ up in Munich and studied drums at the local Dante Augustini Institute. He █
█ . │▓ made multiple tours in different ensembles through Europe, Asia and the █
█ . │▓ U.S. until in 1987 he met a band from Gambia who invited him for a visit █
█ . │▓ to this small West African country. This encounter had crucial █
█ . │▓ consequences for him, for there, for the first time, he heard the █
█ . │▓ beautiful sound of the Kora, the 21-string harp-lute of the Manding █
█ . │▓ Griots.Tormenta spent eight years in Boraba under the tutelage of Basuro █
█ . │▓ Jobarteh, his musical mentor and Griot of Boraba, in Fulladou. During that █
█ . │▓ period, he focused his attention to learning the Kora, the Mandika █
█ . │▓ language and Mande culture. He became so immersed in his adoptive █
█ . │▓ countryÆs culture that he was eventually adopted by his teacher into the █
█ . │▓ Jobarteh family. Griots (in the Mandinka language ôJaliyaö) are the highly █
█ . │▓ respected musicians, historians, chroniclers, story tellers and wise █
█ . │▓ counsellors of the people all rolled into one. The knowledge is █
█ . │▓ traditionally passed from father to son. Jobarteh eventually was █
█ . │▓ officially designated through ceremony as a Griot, with all rights and █
█ . │▓ obligations that go along with it ù certainly a unique distinction for a █
█ . │▓ white non-African. Committed by this overwhelming honor, Tormenta Jobarteh █
█ . │▓ began to bring the rich culture of the Mande-Griots over to Germany and █
█ . │▓ Central Europe, developing a new musical concept based on his own █
█ . │▓ Afro-European history.In 1995 he met Mori Dioubat├¿ during a concert. Mori █
█ . │▓ and Tormenta began to collaborate in different projects. Mori Dioubat├¿ is █
█ . │▓ a member of the same old Griot family in Guinea that adopted Tormenta. █
█ . │▓ Both Griots decided to start a common project and this was the birth of █
█ . │▓ Jobarteh Kunda. Numerous appearances followed, consolidating the bandÆs █
█ . │▓ repertoire and reputation. To realize this ambitious project they █
█ . │▓ gradually rearranged and modernized traditional songs and gave them new █
█ . │▓ titles, thus creating an exciting, new, multi-cultural project. By the █
█ . │▓ time they recorded their first CD "Abaraka" (Urkult, Indigo) in spring █
█ . │▓ 1999 the bandÆs line up comprised top-class musicians. "Abaraka" was an █
█ . │▓ international success (the song "Afrika" became the title song of director █
█ . │▓ Fritz BaumannÆs movie "Anansi".Thanks to the band membersÆ diverse musical █
█ . │▓ backgrounds, influences of other cultures and musical traditions are woven █
█ . │▓ into the pure West African style by including Caribbean elements as well █
█ . │▓ as influences from Jazz and Pop music. This is precisely what makes the █
█ . │▓ sound of Jobarteh-Kunda so appealing and rich in variations. It is Word █
█ . │▓ Music at its best. Garnering 1000┬┤s of new fans on their latest tour of █
█ . │▓ Germany to support their sophomore release, Ali Heja (Bibi Africa, Indigo) █
█ . │▓ they appeared at such well known venues including the Reggae Chiemsee, █
█ . │▓ Sunsplash Festival, the legendary Finkenbach Festival and the Tollwood █
█ . │▓ Festival M├╝nchen, sharing the stage with international world █
