Yole-Epizo |
Epizo Bangoura taught me this version of Yole at Bundagen, Bongil-Bongil National Park, in northern New South
Wales, Australia, in October 2007.
The second accompaniment (Djembe 2) is unusual. The variation creates a cycle length of 16 beats, whereas
the normal accompaniment has a length of 8 beats and simply repeats the first half of the 16-beat accompaniment
shown here.
The intro, breaks and bridge are exactly as taught by Epizo, without embellishments.
The solo in part 2 is not Epizo's but my own, cobbled together from various phrases I've heard other drummers
play with Yole, as well as a few phrases of my own. |
