Koralira

Koralira," a pseudonym that arises from the combination of the names of two different musical instruments: the first, the kora, which has Malian origins, and the second, the lyra, of Calabrian origin. This name is the identity card of the band that aspires to cultural contamination.

"Koralira" was created six years ago by:

Domenica R. Buda: theater director, composer, lyricist, and vocalist

Francesco Speziale: composer, arranger, and guitarist
