"Ah Ndiya" (Oumou Sangaré), a Kora solo

Hi Albert, well done! Some notes feel off pitch, though. I guess the tune is pentatonic, because it is originally played on the kamelen ngoni. And there are some effects like slaps and mute sounds that you can hardly reproduce on the kora. I guess you would love to check out the ngoni some day.

Thanks for your reaction, i really love the kamelengoni. I only used one note one time that is not in the pentatonic tuning. Even in the original it is played on the guitar! I am well aware that a kora is not a ngoni, but it was worth the challenge and it s an interpretation on my kora, not an exact copy.
