When the Kora Jazz Trio released their two previous albums, the critics spoke of a « delightful alchemy », of « world jazz », or even « a miracle of freshness ». A warm welcome for a musical fusion of a new kind that seemed yet so natural. The meeting between Mandingo tradition and the freedom of jazz. The combination of the Kora with West African percussions and Afro-Americon swing. The dialogue between the griot and the blue note. After many tours and concerts, Djeli Moussa Diawara, Abdoulaye Diabaté and Moussa Sissoko continue their travelling adventure with the same sagacity and bring us their third album, released on October,6th, 2008 The Kora Jazz Trio is the union of these three men : Abdoulaye Diabaté, Senegalese pianist, a piano aesthete without frontiers, he graduated from the Conservatory. Fine musician and jazz lover. Djeli Moussa Diawara, Guinean whose brother is Mory Kanté. 32- strings Kora prodigy and equally talented singer. Moussa Sissokho, also from Senegal, master of griot percussion, who worked with artists such as Peter Gabriel, Jacques Higelin or Manu Dibango.
