Mamadou M‘Baye
More than fifteen years now the Senegalese Mamadou M’Baye – member of an old Griot family – has been a cultural ambassador in Europe, regarding himself as a modern traditionalist. In the original meaning of his African culture a dancer as much as a musician and storyteller Mamadou considers himself mainly as a cultural go-between.
