Artistic vision

“

“The members of Taafé Fanga united through their shared passion for the rhythms of West Africa. Together, they offer a unique performance, uniting music and dance into one. Inspired by their travels, experiences, and encounters, they redefine and adapt the language to their image in a modern and urban way, while respecting the West-African traditions that inspire them.”
