With an ethereal sound, Malian contemporary vocalist Rokia Traoré has collaborated with eclectic partners such as the Kronos Quartet. Infusing her country’s traditional music with a blend of influences not usually heard in African music, Traoré, the daughter of a Malian diplomat, sings intimately of love, her childhood, and personal struggle in her native language of Bamanan and backed by a seven-piece band.
