Having won the Cross-Cultural Collaboration gong in the 2014 Songlines Music Awards for his album with Welsh harpist Catrin Finch – Clychau Dibon – the Senegalese-born but UK-based kora player makes the lists again with a mostly instrumental set of exquisite solo kora playing, full of meditative grace, sublime poise and consummate elegance. A Top of the World in #109.
