You say also that there are synergies between the native music of South Africa and Western classical music. In what way?

You've also said that Bach and throat singing sit together. That's quite an unusual thing to hear.

And when you play, what's the makeup of the audience? Are they classical music fans, fans of world music? Who comes along?

Und das ist dein erstes Album auf dem Blue Note Label. Erzähl uns bitte die Bedeutung des Jazz von Blue Note und was es bedeutet, ein Album auf diesem Label zu veröffentlichen.

Du hast natürlich mit vielen fantastischen Musikern über die Jahre gespielt, Menschen wie Miles Davis. Wie war das?

You've of course played with other musicians who aren't jazz musicians. You've played with Sting and The Grateful Dead. What was that experience like?

Wie auch deine Musikkarriere, hast du auch Filme gemacht und Musik für Filme gemacht. Du hattest eine Rolle in Spike Lee's Film School Days. War das etwas, was du genossen hast, was du mehr machen würdest?

What is it that's so compelling about jazz music?

What next for Branford Marsalis?
