Biography:
Kemba Sussoko began
learning to play the Mandinka's Kora at eight.
He is the equivalent at the European troubadour. Kemba is a
griot vocalist who also plays the kora, a half-gourd with a
neck with 21 strings, tense as a harp. The songs he plays
are almost all traditional and meant as tribute to
rulers or deceased, or for special family.
