I know Ballake Sissoko from his work with Toumani Diabate on New Ancient Strings - a project in which these musicians reprised duets performed by their fathers a generation previously. Both musicians therefore have an equally impressive pedigree, but they have very different styles. Toumani is a renewer whose brilliant virtuosity has made him the better known; Ballake is arguably less "showy", more respectful of his traditions and background. If Toumani's improvisations are nothing short of jazz, Ballake's approach is more akin to chamber music.

On this CD the role and importance of kamela'ngoni, balafon and vocals is equal to the kora, and Sissoko is content to sit back and let the other musicians perform: his is the best known name - hence "on the box" - but Adama Tounkara and Fassery Diabate should really be equally credited. This results in a warm, organic, traditional sound; beautifully balanced and with an unhurried flow. This is how it's meant to sound...

This CD has more in common with Toumani Diabate's Djelika than New Ancient Strings. Let's hope that this release isn't forgotten in the wake of these other CDs. Anyone interested in the kora, who has come to this music from whatever direction, should get hold of this CD.

I bought it having come across Toumani Diabate with Ballake Sissoko on New Ancient Strings.That is beautiful,and invites playing.... When,many months later Deli arrived, I'd forgotton that it was on order! Having listened to it through a number of times it rates alongside that album.

I'm not an expert on Mali music....but this will do for me!
