Soon after September 11, when a gunman rampaged through the Swiss regional parliament in Zug, Swiss television interrupted its news coverage for an unscheduled broadcast. It was Abdullah Ibrahim's African Suite, recorded in 1997 by the pianist and composer in Fribourg cathedral, with string players from the European Community Youth Orchestra. "It's because of the healing power of music," says Ibrahim, who believes musicians are miscast as entertainers when their role is more akin to that of healers.
These are videos from concerts where Abdullah Ibrahim Trio played, so they may be of other bands that played the concert as well.
