Bassekou Kouyate live video from Afropop's 25th Anniversary Gala!
Back in September, Afropop Worldwide celebrated our 25th anniversary in style, with a gala concert at City Winery featuring many of our favorite musicians, including Malian ngoni virtuoso Bassekou Kouyate and his band Ngoni Ba. They played a bring-down-the-house set to close the night, one for the history books!
Thankfully, our partners at BRIC (Brooklyn Independent Media) filmed the entire concert in beautiful, multi-camera HD, and Bassekou's entire set is now available for your viewing pleasure! If you missed the gala, or want to relieve the amazing music, this one's for you:
