Sean Gaskell Musical Performance
to
Baton Rouge, La Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70808
For two days in February, Sean Gaskell will perform on the kora, a 21-stringed West African harp, while educating audiences with historical discussions about the instrument. The kora, traditionally an instrument played by oral historians known as griots, preserves through its songs hundreds of years of history dating back to the founding of the Mande Empire.
