喜歡Seckou Keita 說的這段話：

音樂裏的一切必須是誠實的，歌曲是深沉的，旋律不能失傳要保護。音樂合作很重要，古巴音樂，印度音樂和還有kora（21弦的西非豎琴），不論（後來）怎麽改編，其傳統韻律和特色都沒有失真。（因為音樂是誠實的，歌曲是深沉的）"

Seckou Keita 來自塞內加爾，非洲豎琴演奏家和擊鼓手他從小目睹經曆戰爭的苦難音樂樸素誠實，就像非洲森林裏的歌聲，他與世界各地音樂家合作，並去學校和音樂節上展示 kora ，將50%的唱片收入獻給紅十字會

Catrin Anna Finch 著名的威爾士豎琴家，被譽為當代豎琴女王

Catrin Anna Finch (born 1980) is a Welsh harpist, arranger and composer. She was the Official Harpist to the Prince of Wales from 2000 to 2004^[1] and is Visiting Professor at the Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama and the Royal Academy of Music. Finch has given many recitals at different venues throughout the world.
She was appointed official harpist to the Prince of Wales, an office unfilled since the reign of Queen Victoria.^[1]

Seckou Keita (born 14 February 1978) is a kora player and drummer from Senegal.^[1] He is a charismatic live performer and one of the few champions of the less-known and rhythmically rocking kora repertoire from Casamance in southern Senegal.

Keita was born in Ziguinchor, Senegal. Through his father he is a descendant of the Malian Keita family of kings and his mother's family, the Cissokhos, are a griot family (hereditary musicians).^[2] He launched his international career in 1996 under the guidance of his uncle Solo Cissokho with appearances at Norway's Forde Festival in a successful collaboration with Cuban, Indian and Scandinavian musicians.^[2] In the years that followed, Keita relocated to the United Kingdom, while touring regularly in Spain, France, Portugal, Greece and Czech Republic as well as playing at such prestigious festivals as WOMAD and Glastonbury, both as a solo musician, and in collaboration with acclaimed figures like Indian violinist Dr. L. Subrimaniam.

"Everything in music has to be honest, and the deeper meanings of the songs and melodies must be preserved ", he explains. "This is why it’s important that collaborations should be right for the music, and there are connections between, say, Cuban and Indian sounds and the repertoire of the kora that can be explored without losing the distinct flavours of the different traditions and styles.
