Sona Jobarteh is a trailblazer in the world of African music. She is the first woman from a griot family of West Africa to master the kora, a 21-stringed harp that is traditionally played only by men. The kora is a key instrument in the Manding culture, which spans across several countries, including Gambia, Senegal, Mali, Guinea and Guinea-Bissau. Sona Jobarteh's music blends elements of different African genres with western influences, creating a unique and captivating sound.

Sona Jobarteh is a pioneer artist. The Kora is traditionally played only by men, and she is (or used to be) the only wonman playing the instrument professionally. And she is awesome; her voice and the Kora are in sync, becoming one instrument. I love all music from Western Africa - The Gambia, Senegal, Cabo Verde, Morocco, Mali, etc. Peace and love from Florida, USA

I accidentally stumbled across this while searching for African songs and dance. Wow! I just learned something new about the Kora instrument. I'm now a new fan of Sona Jobareth and can hardly wait to see her perform live. After checking the website, I found that she's performing at the Arden Gild, in Delaware, April 5th, 2024. I'm buying our tickets now just in case it get sold out. I've never heard of the Arden Gild in Delaware, but I will find it, even though it's a 2 hour ride from where I live in mid-Maryland.

Here in Romania we have a deep rooted folklore, traditions, music and rituals but nothing feels as close and familiar as some of the traditional African songs and voices sound. Is not even a specific part of Africa, either is Western or Southern...it's something in the tone of the voice, in the instrument used, in the scales or language, like all the human history is projected o in the back of your head and all the grief and the struggle and the nature and wilderness until the present times are revealed to you as a reminder of what you've become in hundreds and thousands of years. The songs might mean nothing relevant, or the lyrics, not even care, is the package that sends you back in time and pulls you back to your office chair like you would've time traveled even for 5 minutes.

You feel that way because you are human... The common language of nature that we live in is still understood by you. You are human and you are still in tune with the essence of nature. This essence transcends race, distance or time, this essence binds the fabric of our existence and consciousness together. I have a feeling that you likely will be an environment-conscious being, one of those who believe in clean unpolluted, air, land and water... You're human, a good human.

I'm from Philippines, I was searching to a music to listen, and I came across into this video and when the music starts I closed my eyes and this music brings me into imagination like im walking in the land of africa watching their beautiful culture. Her music touches my soul. It's wonderful feeling while listening to her song, I dont understand the song but I find it beautiful. And by the way she is so beautiful and talented.

Il m'arrive rarement d'aimer un artiste pour son talent, mais Sona Jabarté est l'une des plus grandes incantatrices du monde contemporaine qui m'est arrivé de regarder et de surcroît l'une des meilleures koriste ou même la meilleure au monde. Je lui souhaite une très bonne carrière et longue vie, remplie d'amour de sagesse et d'expérience sans égales

As a person who has had the opportunity to hang out extensively with jalis (griots) in The Gambia, I am delighted to see a woman performing and popularizing this wonderful instrument and West African music. Women jalis (jalimussolu) are usually singers and don't play kora. It is wonderful to see a woman as such a master of the kora. Her singing style is not traditional. The traditional woman's style is much more hard-edged.

The whole world should love and care for Africa. And all the Imperialists there should must go home. Africa itself is able to survive and go to better tomorrows, if the Imperialists don't fight for Africas ressources. And btw. its genetically proven that the whole mankinds origin comes from Africa. So I hope that the mankind will show more respect to its origin. May Allah protect Africa. I am a muslim and a Turk, and completely normal that I love Africa and its people.
