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.
