Nelson Mandela's election became a point of inflection in many South African jazz artists’ careers.
Wynton Marsalis performs live on stage during a concert at the Prague Proms 2013 jazz festival at the Municipal House on July 10, 2013 in Prague, Czech Republic.
In the years following Mandela's election, jazz musicians have worked to reinforce local traditions while still being open to the influences of the world around them. The genre has moved from being a prolific tool of resistance to a blueprint of hope and reconciliation. Like Ngqawana, the self-taught multi-instrumentalist and composer Bheki Mseleku is no longer alive, having died a decade ago following a long struggle with diabetes. Heralded for his classic rhythm structures, Mseleku created "Mbizo," arranged for Friday evening’s performance by Ted Nash and performed by Nduduzo Makhathini.
