      Thanks a lot for the recommendation, Le Woi. That was a wonderful couple of hours - terrific to see the film and the developments of the kora. I really enjoyed hearing Derek Gripper talking about the influences of the kora on his playing, and of course, Ballake Sissoko's recital was wonderful, topped off with him inviting Derek back on to the stage. And great to see the ever enthusiastic Lucy Duran again. Really enjoyable.
