Percussonia is a percussion and vocal ensemble from Berlin consisting of seven women.

West African rhythms and songs implying chants from  Eastern Europe are combined with a lot of fun and flow in a diversified programme  that invites the audience to listen and to dance. The musical base are the rhythms deriving from West Africa, especially from Guinea. The ensemble plays African percussion instruments such as Djembe, Doundounba, Kenkeni and Sangba. Each member of the group has influenced our musicin a special way. For instance playing the drum kit or rhythms from South America, dancing and improvisation and last but not least the singing of Bulgarian and Armenian songs for several voices, make our music very special. . 

In that way a very interesting music for listening and dancing arose. It combines acapella singing, African drumming and our own creations, which make Percussonia very different from other Afro-bands

    Not only does Percussonia give concerts, but the band also plays at partys and at street festivals (for example at the street festival in Linz-Austria). One can also take part in drumming lessons ( there are regular courses in Berlin ) or drumming workshops ( not only in Berlin )
