Hear a Kora

[Enthalpy]

The Kora, a fabulous plucked string instrument, isn't common where I live, but here are opportunities to hear one - or even two, as Toumani and Sidiki Diabaté play together.

The kamélé n'goni (also kamelen n'goni or just n'goni) resembles the kora, but its possibilities differ a bit, and the music played on it more so. Here a demonstration at a luthier:
