It is intended with the utmost respect that this album is entitled Apura!, which in the Filipino language Tagalog translates to “Very Urgent” (the name of an epochal record by the Blue Notes, the pioneering South African jazz sextet of which drummer Louis Moholo-Moholo was the heartbeat). The musicians of Louis and Trevor Watts’s generation cast a tremendous shadow over the legacy of improvised music. It’s not difficult to romanticize the era in which these musicians first made their marks, exercising a creative daring and artistic ingenuity that was transformative in scope. For individuals like Louis, who spent so much of his youth fighting the injustices of the South African Apartheid regime, the raging music of the last century took on a kind of political urgency that reflected very real, very personal consequences.Tracklist:
As a musician/activist who has spent the better part of his adult life toiling away in the Northern California Bay Area, the music of the Brotherhood of Breath, the Blue Notes, the Spontaneous Music Ensemble, Amalgam, etc. has offered both inspiration and a way forward. This recording is meant to both honor the past and access its spirit, channeling the legacy of the last century’s free improvisation to find a way past the injustices of the modern day.
