🌙✨ Masterful collaborations of kora and accordion to inspire the senses 🌙✨
The new album and show by the international griot and kora master, Ablaye Cissoko, and the French star of Diatonic Accordion, Cyrille Brotto, is music to clear the mind and inspire the senses.
“𝙈𝙖𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙛𝙪𝙡 𝙘𝙤𝙡𝙡𝙖𝙗𝙤𝙧𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙨 𝙤𝙛 𝙠𝙤𝙧𝙖 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙖𝙘𝙘𝙤𝙧𝙙𝙞𝙤𝙣 ... 𝙖 𝙜𝙚𝙢 𝙛𝙧𝙤𝙢 𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙧𝙩 𝙩𝙤 𝙛𝙞𝙣𝙞𝙨𝙝” - Songlines UK "Top of the world”
Nearly three years after their first opus and a hundred concerts around the world, Ablaye Cissoko reunites with the talented Cyrille Brotto for a masterful new collaboration blending kora🌟 vocals 🎶 and accordion 🎹
Titled "Djiyo" (which means "water"), this album is like a river uniting the lands it flows through, harmoniously merging Manding and Occitan traditions. 💧💧💧
In this intimate and spiritual musical journey, the two virtuosos reinvent their relationship with their instruments, offering a luminous conversation tinged with melancholy, a poetic and intense dialogue, and a magnificent lesson in music and humanism.

The duo takes us on a spiritual and intimate journey and offers us remarkably warm and graceful music, one to clear the mind and inspire the senses.
After many great and unique collaborations in different music genres, Ablaye Cissoko surprises us again by pairing this time with the French diatonic accordion player Cyrille Brotto, for what sounds like a waltz between two knowledges, a conversation between two learned instruments.
But between Ablaye Cissoko (one of the most famous kora player worldwide, with 13 albums released! 💿) and Cyrille Brotto, well known figure of the French traditional & folk music scene, this is more than just music. This is a story of friendship and deep respect. 🎭 🌙✨
