#FotoVorschlag “Saitenweise” / String by string Not the best-quality photo, but a memory of an amazing NYC concert by the Gambian musician Sona Jobarteh — the first woman from a West African griot family to professionally play the kora, a 21-stringed instrument with a calabash gourd body. The skill is usually passed down from father to son and is reserved for prominent griots (master storytellers and keepers of oral tradition). She did her lineage proud. #photography #monochrome #concert

I just looked her up on Apple Music and I think I would get chills hearing this in person. Thank you for giving me something new to listen to.
