Chief Xian aTunde Adjuah in concert
Concert highlights from trumpeter Chief Xian aTunde Adjuah (formerly Christian Scott). Plus vibraphonist Joel Ross shares his inspirations.
Jumok茅 Fashola presents concert highlights from New Orleans trumpeter Chief Xian aTunde Adjuah (formerly known as Christian Scott) from a recent performance in New York City. A six-time Grammy nominee Chief Xian is a celebrated player and composer known for his energetic sets and on-stage charisma. Here he premieres new music as well as a brand new instrument 鈥� Chief Adjuah's Bow 鈥� that he's been working on.
Xian was recently crowned Chieftain of the Xodokan Nation of the maroon tribes of New Orleans and is the nephew of saxophonist Big Chief Donald Harrison Jr. Later in the programme he sits down with Jumok茅 to discuss the traditions and philosophies behind his music and the new directions he's exploring.
We also hear from Brooklyn-based vibraphonist Joel Ross. A protege of Stefon Harris, he gained attention playing alongside luminaries such as Makaya McCraven and Marquis Hill. Now he is part of the jazz vibraphone legacy of Blue Note Records, having released three albums under the label. He shares some of his music that has influenced him including an exploratory version of the jazz standard 鈥極n Green Dolphin Street鈥� by Miles Davis, live in Chicago.
Produced by Thomas Rees for Somethin鈥� Else
