On "Chiwara", Mali musician Moussa Diallo has created an album of captivating traditional music which is genuinely African, while still bearing his own unmistakable modern touch and his own personal lyrics drawn from cultural roots and memories.

This album features some of Mali's finest musicians, among them the late Sayon Sissoko, master of the ngoni. The ngoni is a kind of African banjo and Sayon Sissoko made an important contribution to Senegal's superstar Baaba Maal world acclaimed release 'Baayo'.
