When Ballak? Sissoko and Vincent S?gal released their first collaborative album, Chamber Music, they caught the music world by surprise. Everything about this duo is unexpected: the Malian master of the traditional harp, or kora; the French cellist with the unlikely background in trip-hop; and the elegant, soulful music they make together. Now, these two sonic voyagers have returned with Musique de Nuit (?Night Music?) ? an album which may not have the same element of surprise, but which may be even more spellbinding than its predecessor.
After years of touring together, Sissoko and S?gal have created their own hybrid tradition, one that draws on the ancient well of West African troubadour songs, the rich heritage of Baroque music, and an elusive but somehow clearly modern sensibility.
