Welsh harpist Catrin Finch and Senegalese kora player Seckou Keita have made magical music on their latest joint musical project together. I think it was on the Kate Bottley Good Morning Sunday radio show (Sunday morning Radio 4) that I first heard the wonderful music they make. An unlikely pairing a Senegalese kora player and a Welsh Harpist of considerable talent but if you take the trouble to seek out their music I can assure you that you will be pleasantly surprised. I know I am an old man and have more of an ear for Rock n Roll than classical music, but my mind and ears are open and I have found their work peaceful and easy listening,
I have never heard the term AFROPOP before. So I have spent a few hours surfing the web.All photos etc are from the web Google Images etc. The album Soar is evidently the second offering by Finch and Keita and as I type this I am listening to Catrin Finch play her harp on my Alexa. All this stuff is out there you just need to have the desire to seek it out. If you do as I have I hope you like me will listen and enjoy something which is both ancient and new.
