ABOUT

The Mark Fransman 'Homage' trio or quartet celebrates some of South Africa's most iconic jazz musicians and seeks to spotlight them as national treasures. The quartet pays homage to greats such as Zim Ngqawana, Winston Mankunku, Hotep Galeta, Sibongile Khumalo, Errol Dyers, Robbie Jansen and Bheki Mseleku to mention but a few. Each tribute comes in the form of an original composition or suite, composed by Fransman. These songs are inspired by the musicality and personality specific to each of these treasured musicians. The compositions reflects on Fransman's personal and professional relationships with each dedicatee, some of whom have mentored Mark in his formative years.
