SUMMARY:NDUDUZO MAKHATHINI TRIO
LOCATION:SFJAZZ Lab\, 201 Franklin St\, San Francisco\, CA 94102
DESCRIPTION:Over the last decade in jazz’s evolution\, no pianist has had
  the impact of South African keyboard great Nduduzo Makhathini . He brings
  his working trio and music from his newest Blue Note session\, The Myth W
 e Choose \, to this SFJAZZ debut. Born in the lush province of KwaZulu-Nat
 al and raised within the spiritual traditions of Zulu culture\, Nduduzo Ma
 khathini has become one of the most visionary figures in contemporary jazz
 . His music fuses the expansive language of American jazz with African spi
 rituality\, ritual\, and collective memory\, creating performances that fe
 el equally like concerts and ceremonies. Deeply influenced by John Coltran
 e\, McCoy Tyner\, and South African legends Bheki Mseleku and Abdullah Ibr
 ahim\, Makhathini has developed a profoundly personal sound marked by thun
 derous improvisation\, lyrical sensitivity\, and emotional depth. A prolif
 ic recording artist\, educator\, and scholar\, Makhathini became the first
  South African artist signed to Blue Note Records in decades\, earning int
 ernational acclaim for albums including Modes of Communication \, In the S
 pirit of Ntu \, and uNomkhubulwane . His work has established him as a glo
 bal ambassador for modern African jazz and one of the music’s most spiri
 tually resonant voices. With The Myth We Choose \, Makhathini continues hi
 s fearless exploration of identity\, ancestry\, and liberation\, crafting 
 music of breathtaking power\, intimacy\, and transcendence.\n\nhttps://www
