La voix de la kora
Claudine Pommier
An instrument with a deep, delicate sound, the kora is a harp-lute that originated in West Africa. Traditionally, the kora is played by the griot, who is also a storyteller, poet, memory-keeper, advisor and diplomat. The griot talks and sings while playing extremely complex music that has been handed down from father to son and enriched by each generation. The film looks at the history and evolution of this instrument and explores the interaction between African and Western music.
