Mali is a fabled land of musical giants and this Rough Guide features the towering figures of Oumou Sangare, Ali Farka Touré, Toumani Diabate and Basekou Kouyate. However the music of Mali is now under threat as never before. In the words of singer Fatoumata Diawara, “music has always brought hope in Mali. Music has always been strong and spiritual.”
