Music from the Hearts of the Masters

Music from the Hearts of the Masters is an album by American drummer Jack De Johnette and Gambian kora player Foday Musa Suso.

[1][2][3][4] In a review for AllMusic, Michael G. Nastos wrote: "Suso and... DeJohnette team up in duets that do not juxtapose, but complement the rhythmic strengths of the different instruments, creating a language of their own...

It is a consistent and playful dialogue between two incredible musicians who need no definitions, restrictions, or guidance to make their spare, soulful, diverse, and heartfelt original music happen.

"[1] John Kelman of All About Jazz stated: "while both artists look for a nexus point, neither is prepared to completely give up his own disposition, making Music from the Hearts of the Masters a unique experience.

"[8] A reviewer for Spellbinding Music remarked: "the chemistry unfolding between Foday Musa Suso and Jack DeJohnette is a joy to watch and listen to.
