Abel's Jazz Takeover

Cellist Abel Selaocoe and his trio Chesaba join the 大象传媒 Concert Orchestra and conductor Clark Rundell at the Royal Festival Hall in London as part of the EFG London Jazz Festival.

Presented by Jumok茅 Fashola.

Cellist Abel Selaocoe and his trio Chesaba join the 大象传媒 Concert Orchestra and conductor Clark Rundell in a vibrant fusion of world music and improvised jazz. The centrepiece is Barak Schmool's 20th Meridian, written last year for Chesaba, and the orchestra play Tarik O'Regan's 搁补茂, which takes as its inspiration Arabic dance, folk and pop music.

This concert was recorded at the Royal Festival Hall in London on Tuesday evening as part of the EFG London Jazz Festival.
