South Africa & Beyond
Adam Glasser harmonica & piano
Ant Law guitar
Steve Watts bass Corrie Dick drums
Award Winning virtuoso harmonica player and pianist Adam Glasser brings a leading band of contemporary jazz musicians to play his trademark township jazz and the classic repertoire of the great harmonica player Toots Thielemans!
Adam’s unique harmonica sound combines his South African roots with many years immersed in the UK jazz scene as well as with SA legends such as Dudu Pukwana and Hugh Masekela, plus with Joe Zawinul, Martha Reeves, Jimmy Witherspoon, Sting and the Eurythmics. This concert series explores rarely heard township jazz standards across a range of great South African composers from Abdullah Ibrahim to Caiphus Semenya, Victor Ndlazilwana and Themba Mkhize.
Before the show Adam will host a South Africa Jazz Workshop with a talk on the history of South African jazz in Britain and a chance to try jazz harmonica.
