Event Information

A man wearing light blue robes performs in the sunshine at a microphone, playing a narrow, African lute called a Xalam that hangs from his neck on a strap. The instrument is made of wood and resembles a small, oblong guitar. Behind him is a Fender amp.

A Malian griot and Grammy-nominated musician, Diabate is a master of the n’goni (West African lute). He explores connections between West African and American string traditions, including collaborations with Béla Fleck.
