Review:
Ballake Sissoko is a soloist and also a composer who offers us here an album conceived as a trilogy: a first act around the kora alone, including the encounter between his kora and Toumani Diabaté's one, a second act with his trio innovating on uncommon chords, and a third one inviting Alboulkadri Barry's and Rokia Traoré's quiet voices as well as the single-string violin powerful energy of Fanga Diawara, soloist of the Mali National Instrumental Ensemble. Ballaké takes us to a Mali country, enriched through its cultures, version 2005! — CalabashMusic.com |
