Ayorou singing Stones
On the Niger River, the island of Ayorou is home to a “singing stone”, an imposing boulder rock covered with cupules. It is used as a percussion instrument by local musicians, who have come in a canoe. After long rehearsals, the artists will play their compositions to their audience accompanied by a guitar.
