Musiche dal Mondo 2022

SONA JOBARTEH (UK)

Tuesday 2 August, 2022 | 21:00

Sona Jobarteh: kora, voce
Eric Appapoulay: chitarra acustica
Andi McLean: basso
Westley Joseph: batteria
Mamadou Sarr: percussioni

Musicista e compositrice del Gambia, Sona Jobarteh è la prima donna a suonare professionalmente la kora, l’arpa liuto a 21 corde simbolo dell’Africa occidentale.

Nipote del grande maestro griot maliano Amadu Bansang Jobarteh, cugina di Toumani Diabaté, ha studiato la kora dall’età di tre anni. “Imparare a suonare la Kora non è solo una questione tecnica. Non si può separare la tecnica dalla tradizione orale, dalla storia e dai significati del pezzo che stai provando”. È questa la grande convinzione di Sona, una tra le grandi donne d’Africa che si sono impegnate nel rompere la tradizione maschilista di impedire alle donne di suonare gli strumenti musicali, considerati prerogativa strettamente maschile.

Nel suo articolato percorso formativo, ha frequentato il Royal College of Music, dove ha studiato violoncello, pianoforte e clavicembalo, e inoltre ha conseguito una laurea presso la SOAS, a Londra.

Sona fonde diversi stili musicali, sia della tradizione europea che dell’Africa occidentale. Tuttavia, a differenza dei suoi contemporanei, esplora e amplia le radici africane tradizionali piuttosto che cercare di fonderle con l’hip-hop e il jazz contemporanei.

Gambijska glasbenica in skladateljica Sona Jobarteh, vnukinja velikega malijskega griot mojstra Amaduja Bansanga Jobarteha in sestrična Toumanija Diabatéja, je prva ženska, ki je profesionalno igrala koro – zahodnoafriško lutnjo z 21 strunami, ki velja za enega od simbolov tega področja. Igranje kore, ki jo je prvič v roke prijela pri treh letih, po njene mnenju zahteva več kot le obvladanje tehnike. “Tehnike ni mogoče ločiti od ustnega izročila, zgodovine in pomenov skladbe, ki jo vadiš,” verjame Jobarteh. Kot glasbenica se zavzema za prekinitev seksitične tradicije, ki ženskam preprečuje igranje različnih glasbil, saj slednje velja za moško domeno. V sklopu študija na Royal College of Music v Londonu je študirala violončelo, klavir in čembalo, diplomirala pa je tudi na londonski Univerzi SAOS. Jobarteh v svojem izrazu prepleta različne glasbene sloge iz evropske in zahodnoafriške tradicije. Toda za razliko od sodobnikov, ki afriške izraze mešajo s sodobnim hip hopom in jazzom, Jobarteh največ prostora posveča raziskovanju in širjenju tradicionalnih afriških glasbenih praks.
