FOOTMAD concert: Trio da Kali
April 21, 2018
Charleston, Kanawha
Malian supergroup performing in the Mandé griot tradition — mixing the old with new songs to give a contemporary modern edge.
Trio Da Kali unites three outstanding musicians from the Mande culture of southern Mali who come from a long line of distinguished griots (hereditary musicians). The trio sings, plays the balafon (a type of wooden xylophone) and a West African stringed instrument called a bass ngoni. Trio Da Kali brings a contemporary twist to ancient and neglected repertoires.
2018 April 21 – 7:30 PM
WVSU Capitol Center Theater
123 Summers St, Charleston
