About the concert

Ablaye Cissoko is a leading player of the kora, the West-African double harp. With the French accordionist Cyrille Brotto he made the album Instant, in which they make a link between southern French folk music and the Mandingo tradition of western Africa. Tonight, listen to the movingly told stories that Ablaye sings, with the unusual accompaniment of kora and accordion. An intimate acoustic concert in the Recital Hall.

Jazz and pop music

It goes without saying that The Concertgebouw and jazz & pop music make a perfect combination. The stages of both the Main Hall and the Recital Hall have borne witness to nearly the whole of jazz history. Sarah Vaughan and Ella Fitzgerald have both performed here, as have Miles Davis and Louis Armstrong. Famous pop stars and bands that have graced the stage of the Main Hall include Frank Zappa, the Doors and the Eagles, to name but a few. Legendary concerts, in the present as well as the past.
