Experience a magical evening of music with the widely acclaimed singer Rokia Koné.

Rokia is one of Mali’s most beloved artists and a member of supergroup Les Amazones d’Afrique. Her debut album in collaboration with Jacknife Lee (U2, Taylor Swift) earned her wide acclaim, with music drawing on a rich tradition of griot storytelling and her ancestry. She is accompanied by guitar maestro Salif Koné and master percussionist Yahael Camara Onono.

“Her voice has all the magic and subtlety of the griots. Sometimes her voice cuts like a blade, sometimes it's as soft as a child's. She possesses the musicality of the sounds of a kora. She combines force and gentleness”

Maryse Condé, author of Segu and Waiting for the Waters to Rise
