“Kassé Mady Diabaté is
one of the great vocalists of Mali, accompanied here by a top group of
instrumentalists. There’s Makan ‘Badjé’ Tounkara on ngoni, Lansiné Kouyaté on
balafon and Ballaké Sissoko on kora, plus Vincent Segal on cello, who is also
responsible for the exquisite production. There are just eight tracks – many of
them connected to hunting – and it really feels like you’re sitting right there
among the musicians. All the instruments are heard on just one track, ‘Sori’,
but the whole album is intimate, powerful and gorgeously recorded.”
- om ’Kiriké’ af Kassé Mady Diabaté
Det engelske magasin Songlines, lavede i august en unummereret top-50, over de seneste fem års bedste ”world”-album.
Hvad angår at høre kunstnerne live, så er jeg meget godt med, takket være Global og Roskilde Festival.
Tidligere har magasinet iøvrigt
udarbejdet en top-25 over plader fra Mali.
