He is from a family of Griots known as Jalibas, who tell the History of the Mandingo Ancestry through Music poetry which they express with one of the most authentic African string instrument called The Kora, sometimes known as the African Harp.\n\nHe uses his music to provide the most perfect and authentic music experience of West Africa. Whilst his compositions are inspired by Mandingo culture, they also incorporate everyday situations that any culture can appreciate, such as love, friendship, happiness and faith, and range from African ballads to more uptempo numbers such as \" Mama Africa\".<p><small>Date: 15\/04\/06<br\/><\/small><small>Start Time: 7.30 pm<br\/><\/small><small>Venue: Sabhal M\u00f2r Ostaig, TDC main hall<br\/><\/small><small>Audience Numbers: 40<br\/><\/small><small>Type: Music World<br\/><\/small><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1101","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sleat.openvirtualworlds.org\/wordpress\/seall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1101","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sleat.openvirtualworlds.org\/wordpress\/seall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sleat.openvirtualworlds.org\/wordpress\/seall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sleat.openvirtualworlds.org\/wordpress\/seall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sleat.openvirtualworlds.org\/wordpress\/seall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1101"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sleat.openvirtualworlds.org\/wordpress\/seall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1101\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sleat.openvirtualworlds.org\/wordpress\/seall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1101"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
