This is conversation, challenge and kinship in music at its best' - David Fricke, USA Gambian kora virtuoso Dawda Jobarteh and Danish master drummer Stefan Pasborg join forces to release their exhilarating live album, 'Live In Turku' - a captivating fusion of traditional West African sounds and contemporary improvisation. Jobarteh was born and raised in Brikama, Gambia into a musical legacy - his uncle and grandfather before him are recognized as great masters of the kora. Initially learning calabash and all other kinds of percussion at the feet of his uncle, it wasn't until Dawda's travels to Denmark that he picked up the 21-stringed kora. He's since gone on to tour worldwide with the famous Pierre Dorge \u0026amp; New Jungle Orchestra and release five albums under his own name to rave reviews from leading magazines such as Songlines. Stefan Pasborg, godson and protege of famous Danish drummer Alex Riel, is a world class drummer with a deep understanding of African music few western musicians possess, evidenced by his many collaborations with the likes of Morocco's Majid Bekkas and their joint project Magic Spirit Quartet, as well as Danish trio Ibrahim Electric. Drawing on their rich musical backgrounds and extensive experience, Jobarteh and Pasborg deliver an electrifying performance that transcends borders and genres. Recorded during a mesmerizing live set at a festival in Turku, Finland in April of 2023, the album captures the essence of their collaborative spirit and explorative energy.","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54454876307841,"sku":"2339334","price":24.48,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/5709498112510.jpg?v=1751657922","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/2339334","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
