ABOUT NAGO KOITÉ
Born in M’Bour, Senegal, into traditional Griot family, Nago Koité is a master dancer, musician, and cultural ambassador who has spent decades bridging West African traditions with European stages. As the visionary leader of the Saf-Sap ensemble he brings the electrifying rhythms of the Sabar and Djembe to life alongside his brothers.
Based in Berlin, Nago is celebrated not only for his powerful performances in theater and film but also for his infectious joy and pedagogical expertise, guiding students through the "polyrhythm and politics" of movement to find their own source of life energy.

ABOUT FILY SAKO
Hailing from a celebrated Malian musical dynasty, Djelifily (Fily) Sako is a master kora virtuoso who blends the ancient Griot tradition with a contemporary, soulful flair. Trained in the traditional way by legends like Sidiki and Toumani Diabaté, Sako has become a fixture of the Berlin world music scene, where his "jazzy" and unique interpretations re-imagine West African melodies for a modern audience.
His performances are more than just concerts; they are immersive journeys that carry the history and healing power of the 21-string harp into intimate living room sessions and grand cultural stages alike.

ABOUT PASCAL DE LACAZE
A co-founder of Ecstatic Dance Berlin, Pascal de Lacaze is a German-Haitian DJ and multi-instrumentalist who has spent over 15 years helping people get out of their heads and onto the dance floor. His sets aren't just about pressing play; he’s known for mixing global bass and electronic beats with his own live drumming and saxophone, creating a raw, rhythmic energy that shifts with the room.
Having played in 20+ countries, Pascal builds dance waves that feel less like a DJ set and more like a collective physical release—rooted in a love for dance, movement, community, and his Afro‑Caribbean heritage.
