On January 25, 2008, Le Mystère des Voix Bulgares, the Bulgarian women's choir that released a Grammy-winning series of records on Nonesuch through the mid-'90s, and, the next night, Toumani Diabaté's pan-African Symmetric Orchestra, which released the triumphant Boulevard de l'Indépendence last year.
