Malian kora virtuoso Ballaké Sissoko is set to release his new album “Djourou” on April 09, 2021 via Nø Førmat! The announcement was accompanied with this teaser video:
“Djourou is the cord that connects me to other people,” says Ballaké Sissoko with characteristic simplicity. It would be hard to find a more lucid way of explaining the title, and the spirit, of Sissoko’s new album, which presents the Malian kora-player’s music in all its multi-faceted forms: intimate and universal, singular and plural, solo or in conversation with artists whose contributions come across like declarations of love. With Camille, Feu! Chatterton, Oxmo Puccino, Patrick Messina, Piers Faccini, Salif Keita, Sona Jobarteh and Vincent Segal.
