A friend hipped me to two of his sides and I know nothing more than that this is some of the most uplifiting music I've heard in quite a while. Can anybody elucidate?

At the moment I am enjoying a CDR of the radio broadcast of Zim Ngqawana's performance at the 2002 North Sea Jazz Festival. Decided to do a check to see what may have been said here previously and came up with a couple of references in the South African jazz thread. Anybody able to recommend any of his recordings in particular>

Fine player! His disc "Zimphonic Suites" (Sheer Sound, 2001) is all I have (in addition to said radio broadcast). Planning to catch him live in a few weeks!

hey! did they let you out early? :)

We've been lucky to have him in Chicago a number of times in the last few years. First at Millennium Park with Ernest Dawkins. This year he came and sat in with Fred Anderson and William Parker at the Velvet Lounge while he was in town to play Orbert Davis' tribute to Nelson Mandela. A great player and a very interesting guy to talk to.
