Nubya Garcia’s mixtape
Verity Sharp shares a mixtape from saxophonist and composer Nubya Garcia. Plus traditional cattle whispering from Burundi, Tuvan throat singing and Swedish pipe organs.
Verity Sharp shares a mix from award-winning tenor saxophonist, composer and bandleader Nubya Garcia. A luminary of the London jazz scene, Nubya performs as a soloist and is a key member of bands such as Nérija, Maisha and the Theon Cross Trio. Her debut album SOURCE, released last year, was a reflection on her roots and the many places she views as home, with infusions of afro-diasporic sounds. She is also a frequent DJ with a monthly show on internet radio station NTS.
Elsewhere in the show, there’s traditional cattle whispering from Burundian InÄnga player Joseph Torobeka, playing the ancient melodies used to keep cows calm. There’ll be Tuvan throat singing from Yat-Kha, as well as Swiss acoustic rhythms from Meril Wubslin and Kenyan industrial grindcore from Duma. There’s also a new release from Swedish pipe organ player Anna von Hausswolff inspired by the Sacro Bosco, a 16th-century Italian garden filled with bizarre statues and locally known as ‘Park of the Monsters’. Plus a piece made from ‘happy sounds’ by Scottish artist Tommy Perman, which he offered to listeners in exchange for a positive message.
