Bajaly Suso - A kora player from Gambia

Bajaly Suso

Bajaly Suso, from The Gambia, is a kora player and singer of the Griot caste, hereditary storytellers, musicians, artists and historians of the West African Mandinka empire. Bajaly has inherited the tradition of the kora from his father, who in turn learnt from his father, and so on from the first known kora player, Moussa Suso, his ancestor. And so the story goes.

Bajaly's musicianship is exceptional. His kora playing is fast and furious, while retaining grace and beauty in the music. Bajaly is at one with his instrument, and he improvises without effort, both as an instrumentalist and as a singer.
