Sona Jobarteh is a trailblazer in the world of African music. She is the first woman from a griot family of West Africa to master the kora, a 21-stringed harp that is traditionally played only by men. The kora is a key instrument in the Manding culture, which spans across several countries, including Gambia, Senegal, Mali, Guinea and Guinea-Bissau. Sona Jobarteh's music blends elements of different African genres with western influences, creating a unique and captivating sound.

Such a master pieces
I accidentally stumbled across this while searching for African songs and dance. Wow! I just learned something new about the Kora instrument. I'm now a new fan of Sona Jobareth and can hardly wait to see her perform live. After checking the website, I found that she's performing at the Arden Gild, in Delaware, April 5th, 2024. I'm buying our tickets now just in case it get sold out. I've never heard of the Arden Gild in Delaware, but I will find it, even though it's a 2 hour ride from where I live in mid-Maryland.
you will have a blast, have fun.
Me too, the first note I heard from that guitar. I was mesmerized. They are incredible
Saw her and band in Miami - not just magical music but very inspiring presence, and very humorous too she is !
Listening from East Africa. I don't understand a word...and yet i understand everything. Soul language. Love, love, love.
Is very good

You said it
Wonderful music, wonderful people, I am from Barcelona Spain, I love Africa
When you just randomly come across a piece of music and sounds close to you, just like that, your heart starts to dance, your head starts to bob on your shoulders, your body follows the rhythm and suddenly you realize, no matter where you are from, you can never escape your roots...mama Africa, the cradle of civilization!
❤
Please tell that to the biblical ones that think they were somehow first man... 🤦
Props to your saying truth ❤️❤️
There are tons of classes in traditional West African, Congolese, etc dance and music, so just find some in your town
Kora. An amazing instrument played by a true artist. The story telling through such a beautiful sound. God/Allah bless my beautiful brothers and sisters for keeping their tradition alive. ❤️👌👍✌️

Yes ! 🌝
i am from morocco and proud to be African, such a sensational performance, pure and simple not as the new music. i believe that the "Kora " instrument is made at heaven! very relaxing and calming... God bless Africa!
It's the bass.
But remember, you too have an amazing lady singer + her band in your country : OUM !!! I specially love her song WALI , watch the video of the last HERTME-festival on UA-cam, she‘s great, her voice beautiful and she herself is a beauty too.
I fully agree: God bless Africa and it‘s people !
@@gaessli6904 yesss she is really a genius , i suggest you also to watch SHINE by Oum,
and also to check HINDI ZAHRA, she is a moroccan amazigh singer, and she has a very good music
Mourad Oufquir - Yes, God bless Africa, the cradle of the human race, and her music! And thank you for introducing me to Oum. Wonderful voice and music.
God bless Morocco 🇲🇦 and always Africa united,pan- africanism is the key,the political union of all the indigenous inhabitants of Africa.
The sound of Kora playing in the background has always fascinated me. Came across Sona this year 2023 and been addicted since.it’s soothing in magical ways.
listen to Ballaké Sissoko - Nan Sira Madi as well. Check out Tiamane Diabate.
quand j'attend cette music je me dit qu' il y a espoir pour l 'homme et peu être tt peuple réuni nous seront fort !
I'm a redhead rasta man 15 years of AFRICAN DANCE PERFORMED IN DAKAR AND ON GOREE. HAVE SEEN THESE MUSICIANS HERE IN SAN LUIS OBISPO, CA. THEY'RE SO TOTALLY COOL.

@@lightningbbee8646Agelessness and timelessness have a beautiful sound producing dance… 💚💃🏻 🎶🪘🌹☀️
Sona Jobarteh is a pioneer artist. The Kora is traditionally played only by men, and she is (or used to be) the only wonman playing the instrument professionally. And she is awesome; her voice and the Kora are in sync, becoming one instrument.
I love all music from Western Africa - The Gambia, Senegal, Cabo Verde, Morocco, Mali, etc.
Peace and love from Florida, USA
It really is a soul cleansing music and she is a GEM!🙏
thaths true that is soul got tears in my blues eyes
There are no words that can fully describe how beautiful her voice is. She mesmerizes with her singing. Looking at Sona you forget about everything. She is beautiful! She is gorgeous! It combines feminine tenderness and some kind of ancient power.
QUEEN OF GAMBIA???
@@alexandrzemlyanih2439 Feminine "ancient power". (!). 🌱🌿
Même si je ne comprend rien, j adore énormément, et même je suis Marocain, mes racines sont africaines et je suis fier de l être 🎉
I’m from Dominican Republic speak Spanish but I like your music
As a person who has had the opportunity to hang out extensively with jalis (griots) in The Gambia, I am delighted to see a woman performing and popularizing this wonderful instrument and West African music. Women jalis (jalimussolu) are usually singers and don't play kora. It is wonderful to see a woman as such a master of the kora. Her singing style is not traditional. The traditional woman's style is much more hard-edged.
Abaraka!
David Levine you know much about our Gambian culture. Your explanation is unique.
Big up brother.
David is quite familiar with The Gambia.
You know our great Manding culture.. Abaraka...
I listen to this almost everyday as I work. That drummer ain't playing no games! And the entire band completes each other like magic! Every instrument is heard individually. And they all collectively speak one language in a magical and naturally creative harmony!
Yes!!! I listen to this so often! It’s healing and calls me home
Whats the name of the drum is he beating with his fist?
Right on
That wrist movement in there huh... like he loosened the bolts and greased them
You get it!
i am from philadelphia and watching a 60 minutes segment. sona, you are so talented ;)
Proud Gambian 🇬🇲🥰😍🇬🇲🇬🇲🇬🇲🇬🇲🇬🇲🇬🇲
Thanks Sona for raising our flag 🇬🇲so high
❤️
This music is so beautiful. Just discovered it. What a treasure.
True that. I love this woman
I stumbled across this music searching for something soothing that could help me relax while I heal from lung cancer surgery. This music I believe help to ease the pain. Love it and now will listen to know other type of music. Thank you still recovering. Blessings as the music enters my soul and heals me from the inside out.
Hey Sheila, I pray for your healing ❤🩹
I wish you a fast healing and happy life 💜 much love from Paris
Sending you hugs, love, and God's manifestation of Divine Healing, Amen 🙏
Many blessings upon you and yours, Sheila. Be well.
Praying for your complete healing and total restoration .
The internet has brought us problems and wonderful discoveries. Being from Brazil, I would never know this wonderful African music, without the global connection. This rhythm evokes my ancestors, moves me. Everything perfect and even spiritual. the percussionist is really good. Congratulations to the entire band.
this makes me proud of being African,my dream is to visit Brazil one day
Un réel plaisir pour moi de vous écouter chaque jour dans les transports parisiens.
Merci de valoriser et de promouvoir la musique manding ❤.
Thanks for all my dear.🙏🏿
If only this world are ruled by musicians instead of politicians, the sorrow and hardship that we all faced today would be healed by their songs.....just my opinion.
Ismail Yusof Nobody needs to rule anything.
U are right they quick Love away while musicians tell Love stories
So true. So true!!!!
I concur with your statement. The cure for hatred and xenophobia is understanding and experiencing other cultures. This is wonderful music and should be enjoyed by all cultures. Much love to Africa, the rest of the world should look to Africa for inspiration.
Abaraka bakee sona , that's quality music,u make every Gambian proud.and the all of manding region of West Africa ,this music run through. My vain love u
One of the best live shows videos here on youtube ever !

⚘️From Stockholm , Sweden, in the cold north: I don't understand the words but I rally like her⚘️ voice and music ! ⚘️ So very nice !⚘️Music can be and is international= for a lot of people ! ! Keep going ! 🌄
I never get tired of listening to this. Just how each instrument blends in so well. So beautiful. Years and years but I always come back to listen to this. Up there with the greats of Africa Ismael Lo, Salif Keita and others
I'm from Philippines, I was searching to a music to listen, and I came across into this video and when the music starts I closed my eyes and this music brings me into imagination like im walking in the land of africa watching their beautiful culture. Her music touches my soul. It's wonderful feeling while listening to her song, I dont understand the song but I find it beautiful. And by the way she is so beautiful and talented.
Sona, most authentic female musician ever heard, you vibrate Africa. The Creator in you n through you more n more, to highest manifestation, you are truly amazing, blessed and prosperous. I call on all of Africa to support Sona and her dream, let's buy her music. Sona continue in this authentic way of expressing Africa to the world, love your awesomeness!
Amazing musicians and amazing music. Greetings from Serbia.
I'm listening from Italy
Yes Wonderful music
This is our culture,not computer music.She was groundend on earth.Our ancestors is with you
Rotimi fash very true bro....I am a computer music maker but I wish I had my own live band to do what I sample.....the computer sound is washed out...when I look for musicians to group with or hire, the money is too much
maybe you know the orginal lyrics of Mamamuso ?
Nothing wrong with computer music if it sounds good. There are very good computer sampled music that are as good as this. Many of the African greats use it. A good book on an electronic tablet is still good.

What a beautiful sentiment.
I feed my soul with her songs, I seem to not get enough of it! Lots of love from Afar, Ethiopia!
Ay my brother, my sister 🙏
What an amazing piece of music, listening to it in 2023, and what an amazing drummer, so in tune and leading at the same time! From my layman's ears!
The healing properties from the music alone should blow minds, and free souls.
Although I am now in a snowy Belarussian land run by a tyran, it feels like I'm somewhere warm and I'm free while I listen to this.
Let the music set you free brother.
Here in Romania we have a deep rooted folklore, traditions, music and rituals but nothing feels as close and familiar as some of the traditional African songs and voices sound. Is not even a specific part of Africa, either is Western or Southern...it's something in the tone of the voice, in the instrument used, in the scales or language, like all the human history is projected o in the back of your head and all the grief and the struggle and the nature and wilderness until the present times are revealed to you as a reminder of what you've become in hundreds and thousands of years. The songs might mean nothing relevant, or the lyrics, not even care, is the package that sends you back in time and pulls you back to your office chair like you would've time traveled even for 5 minutes.
You feel that way because you are human... The common language of nature that we live in is still understood by you. You are human and you are still in tune with the essence of nature. This essence transcends race, distance or time, this essence binds the fabric of our existence and consciousness together. I have a feeling that you likely will be an environment-conscious being, one of those who believe in clean unpolluted, air, land and water... You're human, a good human.
@@segunonanuga Agreed. It's primal at every level. The sound of nature and the sounds within human beings, like heart beat.
cozmin that was one of the best thinngs i have ever read mate
I am an African that loves Romanian music, especially the Romani Gypsy sounds. I feel a connection when I hear Gypsy music.
5 minutes travel not worth it. Peace 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

African music is a recent discovery for me, and I regret it very much!
A new musical birth with Sona.🥰
I was hunting for some folk music to find, ended up here.
No regrets at all...feels like home.
Cheers from Brazil!
I just saw Sona interview on 60 Minutes in the USA and her music and the Kora. At first I was thinking of Ravi Shankar but this is different sound and her voice is great. Such beautiful, peaceful music for these times. I’m sure her Star will rise even more now.
Glad you were excited and exposed to her talent. Europe have been enjoying the traditional talented African music for great time. Type Kora on you tube and you will discover another world of story tellers. 👍✌️
Me too saw this on 60 minutes and just had to find her on YT . God bless her. She is a trailblazer one of a kind.
That's how I found out about her, 60 minutes I've shared her with my sister and daughter ❤️. This is now what I put on when I go to bed
and I just got tickets to see her at Chicago's Old Town School. Psyched!!!

Listening to your music from Egypt I'd love to say that you are the best African artist I have ever heard
I am an Indian, Tamilnadu State. I always like to hear SONA's songs wearing headphone. Super. I want to go to Gambia and meet her.
My forefather's body may have been stolen from Ghana, and my feet are far from the shores of the Akan, but when I hear Africa's rhythm it stirs my soul and the African spirit within me is rekindled. "Africa Unite"
seems all of us come from mama Africa...
@@cristianaguilar8032 Yes, this is what I feel about this music. It reconnects us to the roots of humanity in Africa. It transcends race and culture and goes directly to the heart.
Yes, it's been a long time, probably, since any of my ancestors lived in Africa, but this music even stirs my cold, lost little soul!
Peace be with you always brother
beautiful words. I Iove the power of music to remind us of our humanity and our history and so much more.
I'm from China，I really love this music，even though I can't understand the language，it touched me so much.
I have just discovered Sona and her band ACCIDENTALLY.. It is really amazing unique African music 🎶 I have never heard before. Honestly I can't stay away from this special music. I am African from Somaliland living in the US
It's amazing. Her art embodies the universality of music.
Today I decided I wanted to hear some drumming. These beautiful people with their awesome music pooped up after I listened to my one hour of drumming. I’m hooked 😊Their energy is amazing. ❤🙌🏿🙌🏿🧘🏿♂️✨🌟🎶😍✊🏾
"I want you know Sona? I love your music. It is moving, with a creative blend flavor that is unique."
That music has everything. Beauty, power, tenderness, soul, majesty, smoothness... The day is dawning on Paris, France, we're in nov. 2016 and i just realized how lucky i am to get to listen to this.

The universality of music always astounds me. You don't need to understand the language to understand the essence and heart of the beat. Music is certainly one of the highlights of life on this rock! Beautiful concert...

Yes!! I have no idea what she is singing but it's so beautiful. I listen to this video often to help my kids relax for a nap.
I meditate everyday and a lot, and with her music on or somebody else like her, and I don't think somebody like her exist, I even told that to one of her drums player right before, they were playing at place des arts tonight
Meilleur concert du monde. Je ne compte plus le nombre de fois où je l'ai écouté

Because of you...I am falling in love with all of Africa's rich, dangerously beautiful and deep deep deep sounds...Sounds so new to my ears....Both musically and vocally...My hands are moving, feet moving, body shacking and heart pumping blood a bit too fart...Every track....Thank you Sona and everyone that made this a musical experience:-)))
you want to correct the way your heart is beating, sir.... just change the r to an s... ;-) Otherwise, yes... spot on
I have been in love from my childhood . The music is the way to connect with almighty creator of this universe. Everyone is singing in their own way including birds, bees and so on and on. If there’s any way to eliminate animosity between nations, we all need to let the musicians have freedom to come together to play their own way to make us feel comfortable and happy to see each other and sit together. Music has no boundaries regardless of the language. Be happy to the fullest with joy.

Iam Somalian i love this songs listening every day i wish i could understand Gambian language .❤️❤️❤️❤️🇸🇴🇬🇭🇩🇯🇰🇪🇪🇷🇨🇩🇪🇹🇿🇼🇷🇼🇨🇲
Well gambia is a nationality not a language 😅
I believe She speaking Mande or Mandinka language, there’s no language called Gambian.
The Gambia is made up of many different tribes, all of which has it's own language, viz, Mandinka, Wollof, Fula, Serahuli, Jola, and a host of others.

Wonderful west African group and so nice sound. Lovely SONA voice and the KORA instrument complement.
I am from Cabo Verde (with great music) , SVicente Island.
What an outstanding performance. The music is so filled with rhythm. I am intrigued with the word 'duniya' coming in so many songs (means 'world' in Hindi). Love your music, it can stir the heart of anyone. Love to Sona and her Band. From Mumbai, India.❤
Just a poor American, and this "speaks" to me. soo beautiful..wanting..
the universal language of music. The true voice and speaking from an African Drum!!
Francamente está difícil para mim desapegar desses africsnos são muitos bons em suas culturas
A kora can calm the world down for me , tnx!
yes.

Anything from Africa is just great and spiritual, this songs can heal a broken spirit🖤
I LOVE this music so much that if translated she was insulting everything about me personally, I would still listen and love every moment. Thanks for Posting. Thanks to UA-cam for expanding our cultural horizons to embrace the greatness and beauty of our humanity.
Just amazing!!! no words..... so proud to see one of the super great female African artists showing the world the magnificence of my beloved Africa, its hypnotizing music, greatly gifted people and wide and diverse culture. VIVA AFRICA!!
I just can't stop listening to this beautiful music and when I don't listen to it I come back to it it's like hearing something heavenly I love it and I hope that they continue for many many years I wish you the best I love to keep playing that good music blessings
Hypnotizing music 😁 that's the word I'm looking for 😁 thank you Elizabeth Nadurlle.
A wonderful video of excellent music from Gambia. Sona is impressive and I love the subtle percussion. The Kora gives the music a special feel and reminds me of when my father played the harp a long time ago.
There is not a single appropriate word for how I'm feeeling and how these incredible sounds touch my heart whenever I listen to them... Thanks a million.
I don't know why anybody for whatever reason would thumb down on this masterpiece
The reason it’s called EGO, and IT is still bigger than mankind. Until the complete end of IT, there will be thumbs down....
It’s called difference, there is no such thing however. But THE EGO does not like the “different “. Ahhhh we are all one brother.
But then again we can’t judge the thins down either cause then it’s the vicious circle ⭕️, do you see where I am going .
Much Love
They don't change their soul oil to enjoy. They get along with the same oil, until they can't take it anymore, therefore you see thumps down. Soul less humans!
They probably felt stupid when they found out Kora wasn't a lady's name
Neither do I, I guess that's why I don't see any. This music is simply awesome and her voice is mesmerizing. I almost feel as though she has pulled me into her soul with it.
I guess if I looked at the top 3,000 didn't like it. Well no accounting for taste is there.
Sona, this is so beautiful!!!!!!! Thanks for being an ambassador of African positivity...

سپاس از این شور و سرزندگی که شما نوازندگان به من شنوده می بخشید. چه زیباست شنیدن نوایی که از ساز های شما.. نوازش گر روان و جان آدمی است...به جای آهنگ های کامپیوتری...پاینده باشید...

pure beauty of this beautiful culture of Africa, here enjoying it in Argentina.
Man Sona and the rest of these cats are bringing some good West African Mandingo music in such soulful and colorful lyricism ♥️♥️. This music is above first class.....coming from such noble and traditional characteristics.
I stumbled on this pure niceness. This is how music should be simple, soulful and minimalist. No computer generated stuff. The live audience must have been very lucky to attend such a concert. That drummer though is over to the moon.
*This is just magic* ❤️ . *From Morocco* .

Just watched her live and need more. So I’m here ❤
I think I am the only Nigerian that loves this girl so much
