Djeliba and the Tall Man

Stilts, djembe, and balafon

Djeliba and the Tall Man is a vibrant encounter between height and pulse. Perched on their stilts, the artists become elongated silhouettes that sculpt the space, while the rhythms of the djembe and the warm melodies of the balafon create an immersive atmosphere—both festive and enchanting.

This duo offers a performance where vertical movement converses with African musicality. The deep strikes of the djembe ground the tempo, the balafon brings a bright, dancing color, and the stilts amplify every gesture, transforming the stage into a poetic and percussive playground.
