SOAR - the new much-anticipated second album from Catrin Finch and Seckou Keita released worldwide on 27 April 2018. The album takes flight on the wings of the osprey, the magnificent raptor which makes its 3000-mile annual migration from Wales to Senegal each year.

Seckou Keita
22 strings / cordes
Released May 2015
Label: arc music productions international in partnership with theatr mwldan
In his new album 22 Strings, Seckou explores what it means to be a modern global citizen, and yet to live with seven centuries of tradition and heritage expressed through music. He gives us the kora in its purest guise, a wondrous instrument that can soothe the bloodlust of warriors and take the human spirit to a place of deep meditation, stillness and beauty.

Released october 2013
Label: astar artes/ Theatr Mwldan
Wales’ most celebrated harpist, Catrin Finch has joined forces with the Senegalese kora virtuoso Seckou Keita to record ‘Clychau Dibon’, an album of unique instrumentals that blend the Manding music of West Africa and the ancient melodies of Wales.
Together, Finch and Keita have risen to the tough challenge of blending two completely different musical cultures and creating something sublime, coherent, relevant and entirely new.
