Hugh Masekela & Larry Willis

T1803962692
2013 marked the release of a sumptuous series of duets between South African maestro Hugh Masekela and master pianist Larry Willis, revisiting a long friendship stretching back to their days together at the Manhattan School of Music, in New York in the 60s. A masterpiece of chamber jazz, and an delightful contrast to the exuberant barnstorming of his long-established touring band, it acted as a timely reminder to the world that Masekela is one of the most lyrical brass players in jazz, with the ability to tug at the heartstrings and feed the soul with music that ranges from jazz standards to some of his own iconic songs.
