Hugh Masekela
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hugh_Masekela
Hugh Ramopolo Masekela (born Witbank South Africa, April 4, 1939) is a South African trumpet, flugelhorn and cornet player.
He began singing and playing piano as a child. At age 14, after seeing the film, “Young Man With a Horn” (where Kirk Douglas portrays American Jazz trumpeter, Bix Beiderbecke), he took up playing the trumpet. His first trumpet was given to him by Archbishop Trevor Huddleston, the anti-apartheid chaplain at St. Peters Secondary School.
After Huddleston asked the leader of the then Johannesburg “Native” Municipal Brass Band, Uncle Sauda, to teach Hugh the rudiments of trumpet playing, the young boy quickly proceeded to master the instrument. Soon, some of Hugh’s music-loving schoolmates also became interested in playing instruments, leading to the formation of the Huddleston Jazz Band, South Africa’s very first youth orchestra. Hugh went on to play in other dance bands led by the great Zakes Nkosi, Ntemi Piliso, Elijah Nkwanyana and Kippie Moeketsi. By 1956, Hugh joined Alfred Herbert’s African Jazz Revue.
Following a Manhattan Brothers tour of South Africa in 1958, Hugh wound up in the orchestra for the musical King Kong written by Todd Matshikiza. King Kong was South Africa’s first blockbuster theatrical success, touring the country for a sold-out year with Miriam Makeba and the Manhattan Brothers’ Nathan Mdledle in the lead. The musical later went to London’s West End for two years.

YOu guys dont know what you are talking about - Masekela wrote and even had to flee from authorities to write music - not speeches - that discussed apartheit. IT was not an easy time for him -- Floating smooth vibes? Read a little history will you Lochness?
