music for a monday morning: Bassekou Kouyate and Ngoni Ba {in Timbuktu}

Malian musicians, Bassekou Kouyate and his band Ngoni Ba make beautiful music that transcend cultures. Kouyate plays the ngoni, a traditional string instrument from West Africa. The ngoni is thought to be an early ancestor of the American banjo. Enjoy!
