His music has a profound significance in recalling and giving emphasis to that aspect of the African American jazz tradition originating in the rhythms and melodies of Africa. The influences of Zulu traditional music, South African township, classical music and American jazz are clearly evident and combine to create an exquisite and particularly lyrical style, evoking a sense of purity and peace that embraces the spiritual healing quality central to his musical inspiration. The Artistry of Bheki Mseleku is an in-depth study of his musical style and includes annotated transcriptions and analysis of a selection of compositions and improvisations from his most acclaimed albums including 'Celebration', 'Timelessness', 'Star Seeding', 'Beauty of Sunrise' and 'Home at Last'. Mseleku recorded with several American jazz greats including Ravi Coltrane, Joe Henderson, Pharoah Sanders, Charlie Haden, Billy Higgins and Abbey Lincoln. His music serves as a vital link to the African-American musical art form that inspired many of the South African jazz legends. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 246-247). 505 0 $a Cycles -- Lineage -- Roots -- Blueprints -- Aesthetic -- Considerations for analysis -- Solo transcriptions. 600 10 $a Mseleku, Bheki, $d 1955-2008. 650 0 $a Musicians, Black $z South Africa $x Criticism and interpretation. 650 0 $a Jazz musicians $z South Africa $x Criticism and interpretation. 650 0 $a Pianists $z South Africa $x Criticism and interpretation. 650 0 $a Saxophonists $z South Africa $x Criticism and interpretation. 650 0 $a Guitarists $z South Africa $x Criticism and interpretation. 650 0 $a Composers, Black $z South Africa $x Criticism and interpretation. 650 0 $a Jazz $z South Africa $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Songs, Zulu $x Influence. 650 0 $a Zulu (African people) $v Music $x Influence. 650 0 $a African Americans $v Music $x Influence. 650 7 $a Jazz. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00982165 650 7 $a Jazz musicians. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00982205 651 7 $a South Africa. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204616 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919896 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 655 7 $a Scores. $2 lcgft 776 08 $i Electronic version: $a Lilley, Andrew. $t Musical Artistry of Bheki Mseleku. $d Baltimore, Maryland : Project Muse, 2020 $z 9781928331674 $w (OCoLC)1206391315 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117011045.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EAFBF1F61DF111EDA8BEF4A423ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
