Cyrille Brotto and Ablaye Cissoko by Cedrick Nöt
In this interactive Well-Being Concert, Senegalese kora master and djeli Ablaye Cissoko and French accordionist Cyrille Brotto showcase music’s singular ability to bridge cultures, expand traditions, and connect individuals. “Both the kora and accordion somehow carry a living tradition. They awaken all our senses and allow us to see humanity differently,” Cissoko told the UK’s Songlines. Experience the duo’s anticipated return to the intimate Weill Music Room, where audiences enjoy casual and comfortable seating options as they explore new cross-cultural connections and find inspiration that lasts long after the performance ends.
