Toumani Diabaté and The London Symphony Orchestra ‎- Kôrôlén [WCV098 UK 2021 FLAC]

Diabaté is a maestro of the kora (a traditional African harp-like instrument) who these days specialises in collaborations with diverse artists such as Taj Mahal, Ketama, Ali Farka Touré and Björk. Kôrôlén is his collaboration with the LSO, recorded as a project for London's Barbican. It is really rather wonderful.
