Stirring contemporary jazz from Mercury/MOBO award winning saxophonist Denys Baptiste, inspired by Dr Martin Luther King’s momentous I Have A Dream speech. Featuring an explosive international line-up including Abram Wilson and Gary Crosby, as well as extracts of Ben Okri’s epic poem Mental Fight. An exhilarating mix of contemporary jazz, gospel, blues, and Afro-Cuban music.
VJs from acclaimed film-makers Yeast join the band to present a creative live mix of footage of the musicians’ performance on stage, the text of Ben Okri’s poem, and powerful images of the struggle for freedom, equality and justice by oppressed peoples throughout the international community. An incredibly moving experience, the music and visuals act as powerful reminders of why the quest for freedom and civil rights must continue.
