HKAF: World Music Weekend - Ballaké Sissoko

Malian kora player Ballaké Sissoko celebrates World Music Weekend with the Hong Kong Arts Festival, bringing his tranquil sound to our fragrant harbour. Sissoko recently won massive acclaim for his collaboration with cellist Vincent Segal, which won the French Victoire de la Musique award. The kora itself is a 12 stringed instrument that is worth checking out in the hands of master Sissoko this festival.
