In recent years, the most vital, inclusive, and innovative jazz scene on earth has shifted east across the Atlantic to London, and the figure that stands atop this revolution is Shabaka (formerly known as Shabaka Hutchings). Until recently the leader of the heralded conglomerations Sons of Kemet, Shabaka and the Ancestors, and The Comet is Coming, Shabaka returns to SFJAZZ having retired from his previous projects and the instrument most closely associated with him, the tenor saxophone, to embark on new projects with fresh sources of inspiration. This night will be devoted to music from his new album, Perceive Its Beauty, Acknowledge Its Grace, that employs flutes, clarinets, and other instruments, while building upon the ebullient spirit and passion that are his true trademarks.
