Ife joins host Stephen Kallao

It’s a session with Ife. That’s the name for the musical project of New Orleans based musician Otura Mun. Mun is a lifelong student of African percussion, and you can hear it in the pulsating music of Ife. Live recordings from Ife and our New Orleans Correspondent Gwen Thompkins talks with Otura Mun.
