New Ancient Strings is an album by world renowned Malian kora players Toumani Diabate and Ballake Sissoko. Originally released by record producer Joe Boyd's (Nick Drake, Richard Thompson, Pink Floyd) Hannibal Records in 1999.
Inspired by a landmark 1970 album, Ancient Strings, recorded by their fathers, Sidiki Diabaté and Djelimadi Sissoko, Toumani and Ballake took to making their own updated version, which many of the songs come from the original repertoire, the music is all modern Mali and played beautifully making this a modern classic in it's field.
