SUMMARY:Live music: Ablaye Cissoko & Cyrille Brotto
DESCRIPTION:Senegalese kora master Ablaye Cissoko shares the stage in a mesmerizing collaboration with French accordionist and composer Cyrille Brotto. Together\, they create a strikingly modern sound that melds the deep traditions of their very different musical cultures and showcases their unique artistry. \nCissoko is one of his generation’s finest kora players—an 800-year-old instrument which combines the features of the lute and harp. It is used extensively in West Africa by djeli families—traditional historians\, genealogists and storytellers—who pass their skills on to their descendants. Cissoko is an avid cross-cultural collaborator. He incorporates Mandinka griot traditions with contemporary musical creation\, performing with artists across genres\, including world music\, jazz\, classical and baroque. \nBrotto is an accomplished diatonic accordionist and multi-instrumentalist\, with a distinguished performing and educational profile in France and across Europe. The rapport between these two artists is evident in their mesmerizing music. \nAblaye Cissoko and Cyrille Brotto perform a gift of poetic imagination and musical intelligence\, at times so harmonious that it seems as if touched by grace.
