| Introduction | I grew up as a privileged white jewish boy in South Africa during the Apartheid era. I have played and loved jazz from my teens till now in my 60’s when I find myself recording this album in Massachusets, USA. In South Africa Jazz musicians flouted the color bar and used the music as a bridge . I experience playing with my beloved Jazz musicians as creating , expressing and being a picture of how I imagine the universe can be at it’s big hearted best. A blend of rigor , freedom , individual striving , sacrificial group mutuality , public love making built on our private musical self – knowledge and instrumental mastery. Every one of these hand picked musicians came to the Futura productions studio in Roslindale to make something true and beautiful ,funky and elegiac. We listened to each other drawing on our inspirational ancestors of the jazz tradition and the moment of our communion in that studio. So now I offer it to you ,our audience of listeners who will allow us to complete the circle. |
