Some musical partnerships feel inevitable, a convergence of voices so naturally aligned that the music seems to exist before anyone plays a note. That feeling comes alive when Aba Diop, Jason Hosier, and John Medeski take the stage.
The music starts with the collaboration of Aba Diop and Jason Hosier. Born into an unbroken lineage of griots in Dakar, Senegal, Aba carries centuries of sacred musical knowledge in his hands, and the sabar drum, historically a vessel for healing, prayer, and celebration, becomes a lead voice with something urgent to say. Jason Hosier meets that voice with a musician's intuition and fearlessness, and together they have built a creative language rooted in West African tradition which is alive with the improvisational spirit of jazz.
This is a General Admission seated show held in the Performance Hall of CSPS Hall. Doors will open 1 hour before showtime.
$25 Advance | $30 Door
