LA KORA DANS TOUS SES ETATS

DUO with ZAL SISSOKHO & DIELY MORI TOUNKARA

 

Singer-songwriter Zal Sissokho, hailing from Senegal, seamlessly combines his global openness with a dedication to preserving the oral traditions of West African peoples. Singing in Malinke and Wolof, he thrives on encounters that shape his journey, perpetually learning and sharing.

 

Diely Mori Tounkara studied with his brother, the famous guitarist Djelimady Tounkara, a soloist with the Super Rail Band of Bamako, and kora virtuoso Toumany Kouyaté. He has been part of many groups in Montréal, including Taafé Fanga and Kabawuko. The magic begins when he lays his fingers on the strings of his kora or his guitar. Music fans are plunged immediately into the heart of West Africa, in Mandinka country, where history is conveyed orally from generation to generation.
