Wow. what an amazing family! Your parents must be really cool.... I am just picking up the Kamale N'goni and having quite a love affair with it. Hope to meet you guys someday....
We're here in San Francisco and really enjoying your playing!! We have a show soon and were thinking of incorporating this song into our set with guitar and piano and three part harmony. Is there any way you could send us the Mandinka lyrics?
hi jess,this is truly amazing.you have such a great voice.this is so natural.both of you have got so much talent.josh finds playing so easily.from paul,auntie pat's son
This song is called Mini Amba. Among the countless vivid West African legends the story of Mini Amba is one of the most beautiful. Mini Amba, a very caring snake, is said to have swallowed the entire population of a village that was suffering from starvation and drought, setting them free on a fertile, green ground where the sound of the Kora Harp was heard. Let Mini Amba open her mouth and prepare to take you away to a fertile place.

So Beautiful ! It's enormous ! I like that ! Good luck for the future ! The mix of cultures is essential for our future ! People who are interesting for other cultures help the world to developp !
