Kora Music

 

7/10/25 Kora busker at Lake City Farmers Market

Walking among the tents of organic berries, colorful bouquets and jarred kimchi, I heard gentle, meditative music in the distance. It was a man playing a stringed instrument I had never seen before, nor the way he was strumming it: Facing the long fretboard.

When I finished my sketch, I put money in his basket and learned that the instrument is called a kora, played by Chet Corpt. It was a lovely soundtrack for a beautiful summer afternoon at the Lake City Farmers Market.

Ahhhh... this is what summer is made of!
