The music of the ancient Mande Empire in Mali and Guinea continues to produce explosive new talents. Adama Diabate is part of this young generation and her outstanding voice has earned her collaborations of Mali's elite musicians: balafonist Keletigui Diabate (who's worked with Habib Koite and Salif Keita), ngoni maestro Makan Tounkara, multi-instrumentalist Zoumana Diarra, kora master Toumani Diabate and keyboardist Cheick Tidiane. -Courtesy Calabash Music
