Norbert Yao’s energetic performances are filled with cultural details about his homeland, Cote d’Ivoire or the “Ivory Coast” of western sub-Saharan Africa.

He learned to play the “talking drums” — djembe and dundun — from family and community members in Africa.

He will be performing July 12 at 2pm at the South Lake Tahoe library for free.

The library is at 1000 Rufus Allen Blvd.
