Griots would often play music while telling stories or singing. In ancient Africa, the balafon was a popular instrument among the storytellers/musicians known as griots (other common griot instruments include the kora – a stringed instrument similar to a harp – and the small lute known as the ngoni. Experts believe the name balafon is likely a European creation that merges bala with the Greek root phono, meaning “sound” or “voice.” The Manding name for the balafon is bala, but variations exist across West Africa, including the balangi of the Susu in Sierra Leone the balo of the Mandinka people in the Gambia and the gyil of the Dagara, Lobi, and Gurunsi in Ghana, Burkina Faso, and Ivory Coast. The instrument’s oral history dates back to at least the 12th century, when the Mali Empire was on the rise. The balafon is the ancestor of the marimba, xylophone and vibraphone. Beneath the keys are small gourds which vibrate and buzz to create a distinctive sound that’s both percussive and melodic when you strike the instrument with mallets or padded sticks. This tuned percussion instrument usually has 16 to 27 keys made of very hard wood. an instrument which creates sound by vibrating.
