Djembe master Seny Touré

Shaman You must be crazy or You should go Guinea to teach them , they re getting wrong i presume .... (i didnt know that people like U could go out of the lunatic asylum ... or they didnt catch You yet ....) i play Djembe since 1991 but i ll never compare to any drummers ( for example Samban Seny s son got more ability in one finger than me even with whole body !!! He s not 15 years old.... so i dont talk about Seny Toure)

Of course he's great but i think it's fair to make comments about the clip and say that It hasn't captured his best form...or i don't like it as much as other djembe clips i've seen.

the wise owl sits not on the warmest rock.

It was wrong of me to write about this and it was not right too. I am sorry and agree with you (he is great!).

there is no such thing as 'better' in this game, love

I would like to ask those who are critical something. Is what I see here your best writing? The artist may be inhibited by the context in which he performs. Someone pops up with a camcorder and shoots. In some situations, even playing may be a problem.  The viewer must understand this! A clip on YouTube cannot be taken too seriously.

the arrogance of siamanra! you need to live and breathe malinke culture before you've any hope of playing like a true djembefola. All the technique in the world won't put you near the great players like Seny, Famoudou Konate, Mamady Keita - and won't fool anyone. Idiot!

I completely disagree with sjamanra I've seen Seny performing and he is as able as any other west african master drummer out there. I really like his style and I love this little piece he plays here. Is this the best he can play? Probably not, but I don't see what is the point. I also play the djembe and I can see how you can play your music with different moods, accents, strength.. all is beautiful when it comes clean....

Well, this is a typical western behaviour - always think you're the best ?
Have some respect for other people please - in connection to nature as you say - you don't know the person, how can you judge ?

You have 100 % right "onzelly" (nickname)
