Loading player...
This Sunday on The World Show our special guest is gifted pianist, composer and scholar, Keenan Meyer. While classically trained and educated, Keenan has also researched South African Jazz [particularly the works of Abdullah Ibrahim]; and in exploring the role of music in South Africa’s struggles for liberation, he’s gained a deeper understanding of music’s ability to galvanise human consciousness - a central theme in his profoundly beautiful debut album, The Alchemy of Living, which is produced by acclaimed bassist, Banda Banda
