Salif Keita — Jazz à Vienne, 2021

Filmed live concert by Salif Keita at the Théâtre Antique de Vienne, on the opening night of the 2021 edition of the Jazz à Vienne festival, produced by Qwest TV. Nicknamed “the golden voice of Africa”, the Malian singer, a descendant of Sundiata Keita, shaped Mandinka music and world music for more than fifty years. Born an albino and long rejected, he made the defence of difference the thread of his life and activism. In 2018, with the album Un Autre Blanc, he announced his retirement from recording without giving up the stage. This full concert, rarely seen on festival bills, unfolds a landmark repertoire: “Mama”, “Yamore”, “La Différence”, “Africa” and “Madan”. Filmed in the Roman setting of the ancient theatre, this live performance captures the vocal power and intensity of a giant of African music, in a concert broadcast exclusively. Production year: 2021. This full-length live concert is available to watch online in high definition.
