Bassekou Kouyate and Ngoni Ba
Thursday March 18, 2010 at 8:00pm

San Francisco, California 94117 Get Directions
Bassekou Kouyate is a virtuoso of the ngoni (West African lute), approximating the larger kora (West African harp) in sound but with a tougher, more percussive edge. Bassekou Kouyate and Ngoni ba are now rocking the stages from Bamako to London. Their sucess has sparked off a new interest for this traditional instrument in Mali. Today not a week passes in Bamako without Bassekou being approached by young musicians who want to start a ngoni band.
