Info
Kahil El'Zabar is one of the most profound and visionary artists on Chicago’s music scene and is now regarded as a living jazz legend.
Active in a wide range of creative settings as a member of the AACM, El'Zabar founded the Ethnic Heritage Ensemble in 1974 to further explore the connections between African American music, such as jazz, and more traditional African instruments and rhythms. Through frequent tours of Europe and the United States, the ensemble has earned a worldwide reputation.
The Ethnic Heritage Ensemble features trumpeter Corey Wilkes, saxophonist Alex Harding and cellist Ishmael Ali, alongside Kahil El'Zabar on drums, hand percussion, kalimba and soulful vocals.
In 2024, the ensemble celebrated its 50th anniversary with the album Open Me, A Higher Consciousness of Sound and Spirit (SpiritMuse Records) and a world tour that has taken these musicians to many countries over the past two years.
