Description
François Essindi, is an actor, dancer, storyteller and musician, was born in Cameroon.
Due to his ability of playing the percussions, he became very quickly famous in his own country. His playing attracted attention thanks to the energy he mixes with the delicate phrasing of his touch. Thus, he became the recourse that cannot be ignored for the new wave of local artists and singers in Cameroon, who wished to reuse the Tam-tam call, the Mvet, the Snail shell…. That had been banned from the popular Cameroonian music.
The leader of Otoubalka demonstrated soon in France the artistic gifts he had already proved in his native country. , Brought up listening to old music and culture , today in Paris he refines the art of Traditional Harp from central Africa, the Ngomo in Cameroon as well as his playing the Mvet, another endangered string instrument, as well as Ngomo or Ngombi .
A storyteller from the Bulu world, François Essindi is more than ever an Artist, who never stops exploring new ways through his writing that might have been lost forever, innovating at the same time the approach and the quality of Cameroonian rhythms.
