South African Jazz Free Jazz Spiritual Jazz

"The melodic sounds of South Africa are fused with the improvisation of jazz and the technical proficiency of classical music by South Africa-born pianist Dollar Brand or, as he's called himself since converting to Islam in 1968, Abdullah Ibrahim. Since attracting international acclaim as a member of the Jazz Epistles, one of South Africa's first jazz bands, he has continued to explore new ground with his imaginative playing." - Craig Harris, Allmusic
