Gary Bartz- Maisha

Charles Mingus, Max Roach, Art Blakey: if at the beginning of your career you find yourself playing musicwith giants of this calibre (and the list could be much longer), the brilliance of your talent is evident.

And this was only the beginning of the journey, a journey that then continued alongside Miles Davis, in the '70s, and then with the NTU Troop adventure, an explosive meeting point between soul, afro, jazz and funk. After the Eighties, when Bartz didn't have so many commitments, there followed a decade of full activity.

For Jazz’About, Bartz has a surprise for his audience: a new collaboration with the young and very aggressive London jazz-funk band Maisha.
