A daring response to the taboo of women playing the djembe in West Africa, Nimbaya! is the first all-women's percussion and dance troupe from Guinea. The group, formerly known as Amazones Women Master Drummers of Guinea, was created in 1998 by Mamoudou Condé of Les Ballets Africains fame. Presenting spectacular performances, Nimbaya! "plays with a fury, pounding out heart-racing rhythms and dancing into near frenzies."—The Boston Globe
