This is the type of musician who should be selling out large concert halls. The show was energetic and fun. Mr. Koité is very interactive. So much talent!

Hearing and being there to experience this performance was outstanding. Exceptional music performed with real heart and soul. The great majority of the audience was simply mesmerized. It was as though we were venturing out on a beautiful visit into the core of what is Mali - the music as an expression of life there and in that region. Koite is deliberate in bringing us many different voices from diverse strains of the culture of that region. The musicianship was so fine too - par excellence. The composition rich and deep. This is very dynamic music which can be enjoyed on many levels. From the simply beautiful in tone, to very, very sophisticated structures. So glad I was there. It was sublime.

i was skeptical of the combining of mali and zimbabwe, and it was charming to hear habib and tuku address the issue, w. afel the peacemaker... the contrast between the two voices and two guitar styles was interesting, the dancing of the mbira player so fun to watch, glad they featured the ngoni player too, a packed house, lots of africans, a great crowd, ending w. the tradition of audience coming onto stage...
