Welsh harpist Catrin Finch and Senegalese Kora player Seckou Keita have just released their second collaboration, an album called Soar.

The two musicians share a cultural history that values the importance of oral tradition and the harp and the kora come from the same stringed family.

Seckou’s kora has 22 strings, while Catrin’s Welsh harp has 47 strings.

69 strings between them make for some beautiful music that has seen the duo pack out concert halls in Europe and the UK.
