All musical instruments are authentic pieces imported directly from west Africa
(Guinea, Mali, Senegal, Sierra Leone.). The craftsmen who create them are descended from families who have produced the same artefacts from generations. They have mastered the techniques of selecting materials and building instruments through the years. Hear for yourself the unique sound that first echoed through Africa and now the world
The Horde (in Peul language), is composed of half an empty calabash.
It is played by striking it with metal rings on hand fingers. Metalic resonators (sandyere) are sometimes attached to the calabash to amplify the soud and give it a rattle effect.
