    This group of traditional musicians is directed by Bamba Dembele, uses the country's traditional sounds and rhythms. The Song and Dance Ensemble of West Africa is powerful. They use instruments such as: the Kora, N'Goni, the Balaphon, Djembe, Doundouns, and flute. This orchestra uses all the musical styles of Mali: peul, malinke, sénoufo, bambara, and they have gone overseas to open up new possibilities for themselves.
