Intuitive Music

Four percussion masters, global leaders in their respective disciplines, come together for a highly-charged musical exchange; explosive, unpredictable, and unusual. Doudou N’Diaye Rose (Senagalese master of the sabar), Chad Wackerman, (Frank Zappa, Allan Holdsworth), Luis Conte (Madonna, Michael Jackson), and Bill Bruford (Yes, King Crimson, Earthworks), are known internationally as the World Drummers Ensemble.

The music includes pieces from all members, but also from Switzerland via Pierre Favre, Turkey via the Harem Percussion Group, America via Max Roach, and there’s even a re-working of King Crimson’s "B’Boom". This Dual Disc CD audio / DVD documents over an hour of their ambitious programme from concerts in Amsterdam and Brussels, and includes a complimentary 15 minute DVD on the reverse side.

The musicians are:
Doudou N’Diaye Rose -Sabar and Gorom Babass
Chad Wackerman -Acoustic drums, Pitched drums and Pitched cymbals.
Luis Conte -Conga Drums, Timbales, Cajon, Percussion
Bill Bruford -Acoustic and Electronic drums
