African storytelling on a global stage, with Abel Selaocoe on The K Jazz Show

When we say Page Three on The K Jazz Show, we’re talking about those artists who don’t just play music – they live it.

We have a guest who has taken the cello – yes, the cello – from the township streets of Sebokeng to the world stage.

He is a man whose music breathes, dances, and prays across continents and centuries.

On the K Jazz Show, we welcome the extraordinary Abel Selaocoe, here to talk about his current project “Hymns of Bantu” and the upcoming live debut solo offering “Four Spirits”, which show cases music that is already shaking the global scene with its deep rhythms, chants, and spiritual truths.
