Akonting/Banjo Symposium and Evening Concert 3/20 1-6 p.m. at the REVE, Digital Worlds Institute and the Thomas Center
Through presentations, discussion, and musical performances, participants will examine the roles of the music, performers and instruments in West African and American cultures, as they relate to the trans-Atlantic slave trade minstrelsy, bluegrass and old-time music, and to communal life and health. The concert, featuring musicians from West Africa and some of the nation’s best banjo players, begins at 7 p.m. at the Thomas Center in Gainesville. The evening will begin with a historical presentation by noted scholars and musicians Shlomo Pestcoe and Greg C. Adams, followed by performances featuring the Grammy-nominated duo of Bob Carlin and Cheick Hamala Diabate (of Mali), Sana Ndiaye of Senegal, and American banjo luminaries Bill Keith, Laura Boosinger, Dan Gellert, Ken Perlman and Gainesville's own Chuck Levy. Ndiaye now lives in the United States, and plays hip hop and rap music on the akonting. Tickets for the concert are $10 for students and $15 for the general public.
