There is great jazz work being carried out by South Africans over the years of apartheid hardship which has been a beacon of hope to many South Africans to the extent that it has been recognized by such a great musician, Winston Marsalis and his co musicians from Lincoln. This will inspire a lot of young South Africans to take Jazz with the seriousness it deserves. In hard times jazz becomes a religion that uplifts the spirits of those who are in pain. lt brings joy and happiness in the midst of whatever struggle. Thank you Mr Marsalis and you Lincoln big band.
What an extraordinary concert! Absolutely beautiful! Bra Hugh has a big smile on his face. Thanks to Maestro Marsalis for organizing this and thank you to the wonderful South African artistes who shared their musical heritage so wonderfully. Amandla!
This is a wornderful concert and the closing number, a tribute to HUGH MASEKELA is sensational and so joyous and a fitting Tribute to a great artist and human being and a great friend of mine . The JLCO is just phenomenal ; hearing this concert that Wynton put together with his wonderful arrangers and soloists is uplifting and inspiring . THANK YOU < THANK YOU
A soulful blend of South African and American jazz. Power to Mr Wynton Marsalis and these great musicians... past and present! The concert evokes fond memories of one's youthful defiance in the face of apartheid South Africa.
Thanks Winton for honouring the black young artists/musicians of South Africa. There's a lot of music in South Africa that's not been thoroughly explored, most of it influenced by black music in America. There's also traditional rural influenced music that's never been heard in the world. I home more is coming for this series in the Lincoln Jazz Centre.
Thanks to you Mr. Wynton Marsalis and Carlos and Chris! For putting on such a wonderful Concert from A lot of Black American Africans! This is truly a very well Put together Performance! Look at where we as human beings are going!! Hallelujah!
Superb arrangements and historical context explanation on each of these gems from SA Songbook. Thank you JALC, Thandi Ntuli, McCoy Mrubata and Nduduzo Makhathini. Ngcaaa!!👌👌👌
A treasure indeed, incredible evening.. so much and so many shared.. many many people noted and played, spoke and spoken word too.. ♥️ 25 years after apartheid ended.. one song towards the beginning.. “A musical to an urgent need for healing” Many names given in the description 💚💛♥️
