A Love Supreme July 6 2026 Part 2

This week's A Love Supreme celebrates music as a force for liberation, resilience, and hope. Beginning with the spiritual traditions of Sweet Honey in the Rock and journeying through the profound works of Abdullah Ibrahim, the program explores themes of freedom, justice, and human dignity across continents and generations. Along the way, contemporary voices including Somi, Nduduzo Makhathini, Kamasi Washington, The Comet Is Coming, Lakecia Benjamin, Ibrahim Maalouf, and Jon Batiste demonstrate how today's artists continue to expand jazz's expressive power while honoring its roots. Blending African rhythms, spiritual jazz, global influences, and modern improvisation, the show offers an inspiring musical journey that reminds us of jazz's enduring ability to illuminate our shared humanity and imagine a more hopeful future.
