The live experience
What reaches the room
The Drummers Of Burundi bring a tradition that sits at the heart of Burundi’s royal ceremonial heritage. Known for hypnotic, interlocking rhythms centered on the Inkiryana drum, their performances weave extensive dance and chant into a powerful, trance-like experience. Originating in Burundi, these master drummers have helped shape the soundscape of global percussion and inspired artists across Western pop and the world music scene.
The live experience
What reaches the room
Historically linked to royal ceremonies, their craft has traveled far beyond Burundi through festival stages, concert halls, and cultural sites. Their influence helped launch and shape WOMAD in the early 1980s, and their recordings on Real World Records brought traditional Burundi drumming to international audiences.
