Join Sean Gaskell for an entertaining and educational performance of West African kora music. The kora is a 21-stringed West African harp, traditionally played by oral historians known as Jali or Griots. Many songs featured on the kora preserve an 800 year history dating back to the founding of the Mande Empire, and the instrument continues to see extensive use in contemporary music.
