about

Following their phenomenal performance at the London Jazz Festival, we’re proud to present to you ‘Harvest Time’, Chicago giant Kahil El’Zabar’s re-imagining of Pharoah Sander’s classic, from the forthcoming masterpiece ‘Spirit Gatherer • Tribute to Don Cherry’ by the Ethnic Heritage Ensemble, ft. Dwight Trible and David Ornette Cherry.

This is mesmerising, inspiring, spiritual jazz with El’Zabar leading on African balafon, Dwight Trible uplifting with his divine vocals, masters Alex Harding & Corey Wilkes on horns and legend David Ornette Cherry’s on piano – on what is his very last recording.

“Pharoah Sanders was the most popular village griot of the avant-garde jazz movement”, says El’Zabar of the late, great saxophonist. “So, when Pharaoh did songs like ‘Harvest Time’, they became something that the entire community embraced. In the same way, Don Cherry was the griot of the community”, and there’s no better way to pay tribute to these noble ‘warriors’, by connecting their spirit in music.

In this exalted company the Ethnic Heritage Ensemble’s sonic odyssey goes from strength to strength, opening up new spaces of healing and new connections to the wisdom of the ancestors!

Harvest Time is taken from the album 'SPIRIT GATHERER • Tribute to Don Cherry' ft Dwight Trible & David Ornette Cherry
