In my interview with the kora player, singer and songwriter Sophie Lukacs we hear her very unique and personal story and also learn about this beautiful instrument. During the episode she plays the traditional tune Jula Jegere, and also sings and performs her original songs Before You and Falling. She gives us an introduction to the challenges of playing and mastering the kora, and how different it was from her violin studies. She talks about the challenges of immigrating to Canada from Hungary as a child, and then of her discovery of the kora.
