For 'Chamber Music' kora master Ballaké Sissoko joined forces with cellist Vincent Segal (half of duo Bumcello). The resulting album is an intimate meeting of African and European classical music. The almost entirely instrumental album (exceptions are 'Regret', an ode to Kader Barry in which the voice of Awa Sangho can be heard) is reminiscent of Toumani Diabate's 'The Mande Variations'.
