Wapani
Wapani is a vibrant West African ensemble founded by Burkinabé griot-musician Doubassin Sanogo and fellow multi-instrumentalists from griot families. Rooted in tradition, their performances feature self-built instruments like balafon, ngoni, djembe, and doum-doum—all in service of a dynamic fusion of traditional rhythms, Afrobeat, reggae, and original compositions. Onstage, Wapani delivers high-energy “Africa feeling” concerts—whether at regional festivals, cultural venues in Germany (Wolfsburg, Gifhorn, Braunschweig), or intimate gatherings—each show blending warmth, instrument craftsmanship, and storytelling from Doubassin’s heritage. They first recorded in Burkina Faso in 2012 and continue touring and offering workshops across Europe, carrying forward both musical tradition and cultural connection.
