Jazz: Rhythms Changing America Pt. 2 Randy Weston African Rhythms Trio and Candido

National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) jazz master Randy Weston and African rhythms and NEA jazz master Candido Camero tell the story of slavery and freedom in America. Historian Wayne Chandler provides historical and current insight into how the African diaspora and the legacy of Africans in America lead to the creation of jazz and other musical and cultural norms that are part of the American experience. Dr. Johnnetta Cole, director of the National Museum of African Art, joins John Hasse, American History Museum curator of music, to moderate the discussion.
Following the discussion, Weston illuminates the story in music, historical images, and narration through excerpts of his latest jazz opus, Nubian Suite, which he developed as a Guggenheim Fellow and has performed only once, in 2012.

Hermosa lección de cinco maestros, cuya simiente perdurará entre nosotros. Wayne Chandler, narrador fecundo y no menos deleitoso del legado africano; Cándido Camero percusionista singular -ya cerca de su centenario- semidiós mítico y, por tanto, inmortal; en cuanto a Randy Weston y su trío ¡admirables! Randy partió hace días hacia espacios para mí desconocidos, pero queda el soplo que emana de su música prodigada durante décadas hasta forjar una leyenda imperecedera inscrita a ambos lados del océano como savia que seguirá nutriendo el jazz y cuanto ritmo se emparienta a un linaje añejo como la misma humanidad.
