Loading player...
A Celebration of Karoo Spirit, Jazz Mastery & 30 Years of Democracy is what will be taking jazz travellers to the Western Cape’s town of Prince Albert this year.
Building on the festival’s reputation for embodying the true Karoo spirit of music, the 2025 Journey to Jazz continues to attract a stellar line-up of jazz virtuosos. A key highlight will be Kesivan and the Lights who will present a groundbreaking commissioned work marking South Africa’s 30 years of democracy.
This special performance will be the first time this work is performed on our home soil, offering audiences an evocative, deeply immersive musical conversation reflecting on the highs and lows of this transformative era.
The piece will pay tribute to some of the greatest South African jazz composers from the past three decades (and earlier), inviting listeners, you know to experience the evolution of the country’s jazz landscape.
Kesivan gave us the exclusive ahead of his tour.
