The Story of SA Jazz

Story of South African Jazz shares the beautiful heart centred music of freedom.

Today we have learnt of the passing of Elias S’dumo Ngidi, the golden boy of KZN and Durban music. A penny whistler vocalist, guitarist and trumpet player, Elias had a distinguished career in music. He lived and performed in Johannesburg with Mankunku, Mseleku, Teaspoon Ndlelu and others. He toured and performed extensively with Babsy Mlangeni and was a musical mentor to many including his own sons the base players Philani and Simphiwe and trumpeter and soldier Eric Duma. S’dumo is a musical father and educator. He was a moving spirit behind the Story of SA jazz book series and performed at the book launch concert. youtu.be/pnAvUErJFlg?si=lA5e_j3UtqZxT_edMay his beautiful musical soul rest in peace and his brilliant musical vision be continued.

Bra Claude Gauwe is the last born son of Mra Ngcukana and Faith Gauwe. Meeting Bra Claude for the first time in Zwelitsha and Ginsberg I experienced a deeply humble man and a true music educator. He shared his joy in music with us so openly and with such warmth. He is in a happier place now, may his musical soul be at peace. See MoreSee Less
