Nelson Mandela Artifacts Set for Auction Following Lengthy Court Battle With South Africa
Nelson Mandela is set to have nearly a hundred of his personal belongings on sale in an online auction this upcoming February after a lengthy two-year court battle. South African Trumpeter Darren English Lives in 'Imagine Nation' on Hot Shoe Records [REVIEW]
Here's a young trumpet player, composer and arranger from Capetown, South Africa who plays well beyond his years. For 'Imagine Nation' (Hot Shoe Records) Darren English has written a three-track suite for Nelson Mandela [1918-2013]. English was born in 1990, the year Mandela was released from prison. Add two bebop classics, one more original and four imaginatively reconfigured tunes from the "great American songbook" and you've got one impressive debut.
