Marimba Boise is a community of students of Zimbabwean-style marimba music. They play on a family of xylophones, where each instrument adds an essential voice to an intricate and joyful sound. Drawing on traditional and contemporary music from southern Africa, they celebrate the region’s infectious dance rhythms.
Their passion is to see this music become a familiar part of Boise’s thriving arts scene. To this end, they offer classes for players aged nine to ninety-nine, from first-time instrumentalists to accomplished performers and teachers.
Take a moment to like, follow, share, and support these vibrant groups forming the Global Lounge Artists Coalition. Let’s celebrate diversity and stay connected to the beauty of tradition.
