He was 65 when MARIS was born.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>The pianist will perform with his trio which includes\u00a0Cleave Guyton on flute, piccolo, clarinet and saxophone and\u00a0Noah Jackson on bass and cello.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Ibrahim\u00a0is a South African pianist and composer. His music reflects many of the musical influences of his childhood in the multicultural port areas of\u00a0Cape Town, ranging from traditional African songs to the\u00a0gospel\u00a0of the\u00a0AME Church\u00a0and\u00a0Ragas, to more modern\u00a0jazz\u00a0and other Western styles.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Ibrahim is considered the leading figure in the subgenre of\u00a0Cape jazz. Within jazz, his music particularly reflects the influence of\u00a0Thelonious Monk\u00a0and\u00a0Duke Ellington. He is known especially for \u201cMannenberg,\u201d a jazz piece that became a notable\u00a0anti-apartheid anthem.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Called \u201cSouth Africa\u2019s Mozart\u201d by Nelson Mandela, Cape Town-born icon and 2019 NEA Jazz Master Abdullah Ibrahim brings his \u201cspell-binding trio\u201d to the Zellerbach Theater on the heels of his latest release, \u201cTurn to Allah\u201d<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>With over 50 wide-ranging albums, this pianist, composer and outspoken chronicler of South Africa\u2019s struggle with apartheid has become an international icon, mixing influences from jazz and classical to gospel and traditional African music with an \u201cever-inventive talent.\u201d<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Ibrahim was born in 1934 in Cape Town and baptized Adolph Johannes Brand. His early musical memories were of traditional African Khoi-san songs and the Christian hymns, gospel tunes and spirituals that he heard from his grandmother, who was pianist for the local African Methodist Episcopalian church, and his mother, who led the choir.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>The Cape Town of his childhood was a melting-pot of cultural influences, and the young Dollar Brand, as he became known, was exposed to American jazz, township jive, CapeMalay music, as well as to classical music.<\/div>\n<div>Out of this blend of the secular and the religious, the traditional and the modern, developed the distinctive style, harmonies and musical vocabulary that are inimitably his own.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>He began piano lessons at the age of seven and made his professional debut at 15, playing and later recording with such local groups as the Tuxedo Slickers. He was in the forefront of playing bebop with a Cape Town flavor and 1958 saw the formation of the Dollar Brand Trio.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>His groundbreaking septet the Jazz Epistles, formed in 1959 (with saxophonist Kippie Moeketsi, trumpeter Hugh Masekela, trombonist Jonas Gwanga, bassist Johnny Gertze and drummer Makaya Ntshoko), recorded the first jazz album by South African musicians.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>That same year, he met and first performed with vocalist Sathima Bea Benjamin. Six years later, they married.<\/div>\n<div>After the notorious Sharpeville massacre of 1960, mixed-race bands and audiences were defying the increasingly strict apartheid laws, and jazz symbolized resistance, so the government closed a number of clubs and harassed the musicians.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>These were difficult times in which to sustain musical development in South Africa. In 1962, with Nelson Mandela imprisoned and the ANC banned, Dollar Brand and Sathima Bea Benjamin left the country, joined later by the other trio members Gertze and Ntshoko, and took up a three-year contract at the Club Africana in Z\u00fcrich.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>There, in 1963, Sathima persuaded Duke Ellington to listen to them play, which led to a recording session in Paris \u2013 Duke Ellington presents the Dollar Brand Trio \u2013 and invitations to perform at key European festivals, and on television and radio during the next two years.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>In 1965, the couple moved to New York. After appearing that year at the Newport Jazz Festival and Carnegie Hall, Dollar Brand was called upon in 1966 to substitute as leader of the Ellington Orchestra in five concerts. Then followed a six-month tour with the Elvin Jones Quartet.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>In 1967 he received a Rockefeller Foundation grant to attend the Juilliard School of Music. Being in the USA also afforded him the opportunity to interact with many progressive musicians, including Don Cherry, Ornette Coleman, John Coltrane, Pharaoh Sanders, Cecil Taylor and Archie Shepp.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>The year 1968 was a turning point.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Searching for spiritual harmony in an increasingly fractured life, Dollar Brand went back to Cape Town, where he converted to Islam, taking the name Abdullah Ibrahim, and in 1970 he made a pilgrimage to Mecca.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Music and martial arts further reinforced the spiritual discipline he found. After a couple of years based in Swaziland, where he founded a music school, Abdullah and his young family returned in 1973 to Cape Town, though he still toured internationally with his own large and small groups.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>In 1974 he recorded \u201cMannenberg \u2013 \u2018Is where it\u2019s happening\u2019\u201d, which soon became an unofficial national anthem for black South Africans. After the Soweto student uprising, in 1976, he organized an illegal ANC benefit concert. Before long, he and his family left for America, to settle once again in New York.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>In 1990 Mandela, freed from prison, invited him to come home to South Africa. The fraught emotions of reacclimatizing there are reflected in \u201cMantra Modes\u201d (1991), the first recording with South African musicians since 1976, and in \u201cKnysna Blue\u201d (1993).<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>For more than a quarter-century he has toured the world extensively, appearing at major concert halls, clubs and festivals, giving sell-out performances, as a solo artist or with other renowned artists (notably, Max Roach, Carlos Ward and Randy Weston).<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>His discography runs to well over a hundred album credits.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Video link for Abdullah Ibrahim \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/L5i4stj4M30\">https:\/\/youtu.be\/L5i4stj4M30<\/a>.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>The show on November 10 will start at 7 p.m.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Ticket prices start at $95.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cSomething blue\u201d is actually \u201csomething blues,\u201d the main genre of Kelli Baker\u2019s music.<\/div>\n<div>When\u00a0\u00a0Baker headlines a show at Jamey\u2019s House of Music (32 South Lansdowne Avenue, Lansdowne, 215-477-9985,<u><a id=\"OWA1ae2989d-a8b1-766b-7f7c-fc7ac1588e51\" class=\"OWAAutoLink\" title=\"Protected by Outlook: http:\/\/www.jameyshouseofmusic.com\/.

The third stage was like seeing a full-scale campfire start to blaze.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cThis will be my fourth time to play Jamey\u2019s,\u201d said Baker, during a phone interview Tuesday from Huntington, Long Island while walking Yoshi, her 14-year-old Yorkshire Terrier.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cThe first time was back in November and there were less than 30 people there.
