Having already established themselves separately as players of international note, with Toumani considered by many to be the finest kora-player in the world, they recorded "New Ancient Strings" together in Bamako in 1997. The album is named after the first album of instrumental kora music, "Ancient Strings", recorded by their fathers 27 years earlier.

Nice upload @Bandulu4Real - I saw and met Toumani Diabate at Larmer Tree festival (UK) about 4 years ago. I can't remember a live show where I was as mesmerized by the music as I was then :)
