Malick Pathe Sow & Bao Sissoko (Senegal): Tumburanke

Malick Pathé Sow (vocals, hoddu, guitar) is one of Senegalese Fulani music’s most important ambassadors in Europe and he has found a perfect match in his partner of choice, Bao Sissoko - the Mandinka griot known primarily for his refined and virtuoso playing of the kora. Together with Talike Gelle from Madagascar (vocals) and the Senegalese calebash-player Serigne Thiam they play Tumburanke, ’The exile’ (from their cd Aduna): ’ we are all immigrants in this world.’ ---------------- Malick Pathé So
