Together the Kronos Quartet and Trio da Kali have created an album that is rich in texture, hauntingly melodic and strikingly inventive as violins, viola and cello combine with balafon, ngoni and the powerful female voice of Hawa ‘Kassé Mady’ Diabaté in transcendental style. David Harrington, who founded the Kronos Quartet in 1973, describes the album as “one of the most beautiful Kronos has done in forty years.” All three Da Kali members come from hereditary musical families; Balafon player and musical director Lassana Diabate was a long-time member of Toumani Diabate’s Symmetric Orchestra and has recorded with Salif Keita, Taj Mahal and many others. A musician of great subtlety and invention he has honed a virtuoso two-balafon technique to perfection. Bass ngoni player Mamadou Kouyaté is the eldest son of the instrument’s greatest exponent, Bassekou Kouyaté and he holds down the groove in his father’s band ‘Ngoni Ba’. Singer Hawa ‘Kassé Mady’ Diabate is the daughter of Mali’s greatest traditional singer, Kassé Mady Diabate, and the power, range and phrasing of her voice led David Harrington to compare her to the late queen of American gospel, Mahalia Jackson. Kronos Quartet have earned an enviable reputation collaborating with contemporary composers such as Steve Reich, Philip Glass, Terry Riley and Laurie Anderson and with world music icons from Argentinian tango hero Astor Piazzola to Bollywood singer Asha Bhosle. They have worked with a breadth of artists, including Arvo Part, Tom Waits, Big Star, Rhiannon Giddens and Clint Mansell. Their film work includes ‘Heat’, ‘Requiem for a Dream’, ‘The Fountain’ & ‘The Great Beauty’ For Fans Of: Salif Keita, Tinariwen, Ali Farka Touré, Rokia Traoré, Philip Glass, Steve Reich Artist Trio Da Kali And Kronos Quartet Genre World / Fusion Label World Circuit Buying Options 180g 1LP Includes Download Code Format 180g , 1LP , Includes Download Code Condition New Country United Kingdom Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from World / Fusion View Product Quick View Fela Kuti & Africa 70 Alagbon Close World / Fusion | Knitting Factory | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 8th April 2016 £15.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Fela Kuti & Africa 70 Alagbon Close £15.00 Genre: World / Fusion Label: Knitting Factory SKU: KFR2011-1 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 8th April 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Fela Kuti & Africa 70 Everything Scatter World / Fusion | Knitting Factory | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 8th April 2016 £15.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Fela Kuti & Africa 70 Everything Scatter £15.00 Genre: World / Fusion Label: Knitting Factory SKU: KFR2013-1 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 8th April 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Bokanté History World / Fusion | Real World Records | 1LP Released 30th June 2023 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Bokanté History £25.00 Genre: World / Fusion Label: Real World Records SKU: LPRW244 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 30th June 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Various Artists The Rough Guide to Voodoo World / Fusion | World Music Network | 180g, 1LP Released 5th May 2014 £11.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Various Artists The Rough Guide to Voodoo £11.00 Genre: World / Fusion Label: World Music Network SKU: RGNET1275LP Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 5th May 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Sinkane Life & Livin It – Indies Only Coloured Vinyl World / Fusion | City Slang | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 10th February 2017 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Sinkane Life & Livin It – Indies Only Coloured Vinyl £22.00 Genre: World / Fusion Label: City Slang SKU: SLANG501115LT Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 10th February 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Ibrahim Ferrer Buena Vista Social Club presents World / Fusion | World Circuit | 180g, 2LP Released 9th April 2021 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Ibrahim Ferrer Buena Vista Social Club presents £25.00 Genre: World / Fusion Label: World Circuit SKU: 4050538650013 Formats: 180g, 2LP Released Date: 9th April 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Gurrumul Djarimirri (Child of the Rainbow) Classical | MVKA | 2LP Released 31st August 2018 £23.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Gurrumul Djarimirri (Child of the Rainbow) £23.00 Genre: Classical Label: MVKA SKU: 9324690147557 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 31st August 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Fela Kuti Underground System World / Fusion | Knitting Factory | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 13th December 2019 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Fela Kuti Underground System £17.00 Genre: World / Fusion Label: Knitting Factory SKU: KFR2045-1 Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 13th December 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Various Artists The Rough Guide to African Rare Groove World / Fusion | World Music Network | 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 13th April 2015 £12.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Various Artists The Rough Guide to African Rare Groove £12.00 Genre: World / Fusion Label: World Music Network SKU: RGNET1323LP Formats: 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 13th April 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Bongeziwe Mabandla AmaXesha World / Fusion | Black Major | 1LP Released 16th June 2023 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Bongeziwe Mabandla AmaXesha £19.00 Genre: World / Fusion Label: Black Major SKU: BM051LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 16th June 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in World / Fusion Start again
