Brief history of the instrument
The Kora is a very ancient African instrument that dates back to the times of the Mali Empire. It belongs to a large family of traditional harps. It has between 21 and 23 strings and is tuned in major diatonic natural scales, with some musical pieces requiring other types of tunings.
It originally comes from countries such as Mali, Guinea, Gambia, Senegal, among others. It is an instrument very present in daily life in these countries. It is an instrument full of mysticism. In traditional assembly, braids of cow leather are used to make the pegs and in the past the ropes were made with leather or animal guts.
Nowadays the Kora is known throughout the world and many musicians chose it, thus leaving the traditional musical format and adapting to all types of music and instrumental ensembles.
