Review:
This album features thirteen of the school's [INA] singers, songwriters, and instrumentalists selected by Music Director Souleymans Dembélé to record both their own compositions and various traditional Malian songs. Recording took place randomly in between breaks for prayers, power outages, official gatherings for visiting dignitaries, and exams. The singers were accompanied by an assortment of Malian acoustic stringed and percussion instruments (kora, n'goni, balafon, djembe, crayon) and the ubiquitous acoustic guitar played in the unique two-finger style typical of Mandingue and Malinke guitarists. — CalabashMusic.com |
