Beautiful story but I still cried. Cathy my good friend who is learning to play this instrument that there was a sad but beautiful lesson of life and loss❤

❤

Wow, this was fabulous! The Kora is so versatile. Great playing.

I remember listening to Toumani Diabaté's "Mali Sadio" the day my childhood friend passed, the song never fails to bring me to tears. He may have spoken more about politics and calls for unity in the Sadio region but a clear inspiration from folklore passed down, alongside an amazing instrument. I don't think I'll ever stop being fascinated by the kora's beautiful sound, you're immensely talented John, thank you for this story.

I so love your performance! Thank you for posting. 😍

I adore your music and story telling. Thank you for sharing 😘

So sweet...I am glad I was led to this performance...comforting and inspiring

I'm sure I saw you in a repeat of the quiz show The Chase the other day, describing your kora 🙂. Came close to taking the money home 😁

Instant Serenity ❤

This is beautiful!

This musical intrigue.Jarabi doing all terrain all weather. beautiful

Mr. John Hughes, my Father, Waldemar Bastos, an angolan musician, passed away in August 2020. In April last year he sent an email to himself with your UA-cam link to this song. I am sure he loved your art and would probably want to work with you. Check his music on here UA-cam and across music platforms, I hope you like it, I am sure you will dance and feel his music even if you don’t understand the language. Thank you.

Great music! Thanks

Congratulations from a Kouyateh
