Arguably the most influential and inspiring kora player of his generation.
One of the leaders of the newest generation of African traditional musicians, Seckou fuses the traditional forms and instruments of Senegal with those of other cultures.In his award-winning 2015 album 22 Strings, Seckou explores what it means to be a modern global citizen, and yet to live with seven centuries of tradition and heritage expressed through music. He gives us the kora in its purest guise, a wondrous instrument that can soothe the bloodlust of warriors and take the human spirit to a place of deep meditation, stillness and beauty. Combined with evocative vocals, expect an unforgettable musical experience as this outstanding performer tours to Dorset through Artsreach, the counties touring arts charity.
