Improvising across Five Continents
On International Jazz Day, Corey Mwamba shares improvised music from around the world, including Peruvian polyrhythms, Irish electro-acoustics, and Kurdish cellist Khabat Abas.
Established by UNESCO in 2011, International Jazz Day celebrates the heritage, future and impact of this art form, raising awareness of the need for intercultural dialogue and mutual understanding by bringing together artists and enthusiasts from all over the world. Marking this year's edition, Corey Mwamba shares improvised music from around the world, including explorations of Peruvian polyrhythms on cajon and electronics by Ale Hop and Laura Robles, and an ominous electro-acoustic piece from Irish musicians Fergus Kelly and David Lacey. Kurdish musician Khabat Abas, meanwhile, offers solo improvisations on the skin cello, an experimental instrument made from the combination of a drum skin and a cello; plus intricate drumming by Australian Will Guthrie.
