Available in:
In 2008, after a chance meeting at an airport terminal in Berlin, Germany, Raichel and Touré forged a friendship and promised to ultimately perform together in concert. This desire finally came to fruition in November 2010 with the duo performing at the Tel Aviv Opera House. The following day after the concert an impromptu get together was held at a small recording studio in Tel Aviv. Joining Vieux and Idan in the studio were Israeli bassist Yossi Fine and Malian calabash player Souleymane Kane. According to Raichel, the group "recorded a mix of Malian rhythms mixed with Israeli melodies — all originals, but very influenced from both our cultures." This spontaneous and improvised acoustic recording session lasted for three hours and marked the birth of The Touré-Raichel Collective. The group's debut album, The Tel Aviv Session, was released by Cumbancha on March 27, 2012. The group toured in North America (with Amit Carmeli on bass) in March and April 2012. The Touré-Raichel Collective is planning a European tour for Fall 2012
