Description:
In Senegal in January of 2012, after teaching art with children in a neighborhood school around Dakar, I was fortunate to travel to Toubab Diallo where I met Kora player, Djaliba “Pape” Sakho, and Riiti player Djibril Bra. This video provides a mere glimpse of the performances and educational conversations they shared. I owe many thanks to Pape and Djibril for their generosity with their talents and knowledge. Appreciation also goes to Tony Vacca and Massamba Diop for translation, interpreta
