saxophoneAbout
My love of Wayne Shorter’s music started in the mid- late 80s when I was introduced to the album “Native Dancer” by the South African musicians with whom I was studying.
For this project, which I will be debuting at and have developed specifically for Jazz Café POSK; I have applied my lyrics, voice and poetry to a selection of my favourite Wayne Shorter compositions
Amongst other material, I have chosen to go back to the 60s and to feature mainly, the work of his Blue Note period,
I will be supported by some of our finest jazz musicians
With the band, I share the stage and frontline with saxophone and backline with the traditional jazz trio of piano, double bass and drums...
