@_sarabelle97_ You already know. And I you ❤️

I was invited to speak at the Jazz Among the Discourses Symposium at the Birmingham City University. It was an honor to share my work on Ghanaian (African) jazz in historical and transnational perspectives and to connect with amazing folks doing important work on jazz today!

The connections between jazz and Ghana's highlife are fascinating. ☆Darn That Dream as highlife! #jazzpiano #ghanamusic #highlife #ghana #oxford #blackmusic #errollgarner #gospel #stridepiano #africandiaspora #musicresearch #kawai #improvisation #africanmusic #jazzsolo #uk
