'Aduna' ("the world") is first and foremost a musical encounter between Senegalese Fula musician Malick Pathé Sow and his Mandingo compatriot Bao Sissoko. Much more than the hoddu and kora you won't get to hear and on this kind of classic album, of course, an ode to the grandmaster can't be missing from the track list ('Hommage A Ali Farka Touré'). Beautiful album that could have benefited from a little bit of an edge here and there. Like Malick Pathé Sow's previous album, 'Aduna' was recorded for the Brussels Muziekpublique label.
