West African Kora with Sean Gaskell

Join musician Sean Gaskell in this all ages program as he regales us with songs on the Kora, a 21 stringed West African Harp.

The Kora is traditionally played by oral historians known as Griots as they detail and preserve an over 800 year old history dating back to the founding of the Mande Empire. This program was made possible by the Friends of the Deerfield Public Library.
