Gorgeous, mesmering album of Malian kora interpretations from the label that brought us killer re-issues by Bea Benjamin, Batsumi and Ndikho Xaba!
Derek Gripper magically conjures anew the centuries-old ancient African musical heritage on his six-string guitar! Drawing on European classical traditions, avant-garde Brazilian works, Malian kora works, Cape Town’s folk styles such as goema and vastrap, and Indian classical music, all the while synthesising them into a style uniquely his own.
