Amidou Koita & Jorossin - Sargfabrik - 2026

Sargfabrik - Verein für integrative Lebensgestaltung, Wien

Amidou Koita & Jorossin bring a musical fireworks display to the stage. Their forward-thinking sound blends West African rhythms with Afrobeat, reggae, blues, jazz, funk, and salsa grooves. It’s music that doesn’t care about borders, but rather about movement, connection, and shared euphoria.

At the center is Amidou Koita, a Burkinabé living in Vienna. His songs open doors to West African tradition and the rich griot culture. He sings in Bwamou and Dioula, telling stories of family, community, and solidarity—stories carried by rhythm, warmth, and a deep sense of connection.

Jorossin means “future.” And that’s exactly what it’s all about: carrying on cultural roots, bringing together influences, and creating music that breathes tradition while looking toward the future.

On stage, an international ensemble from three continents comes together: musicians from Burkina Faso, Austria, and Colombia weave their musical languages into a shared pulse. Music for the whole world!
