ICE on Fire

ICE Music Dept. presents a very special “ICE ON FIRE” featuring saxophonist, composer and political activist Salim Washington (Memphis TN, 1958). Dr. Cornel West describes Washington’s work as a “new synoptic vision of what jazz can be and do. The fundamental spirit behind the music...lives on in new ways and novel sounds.”
 
Washington studied at Harvard and also became a professor in Brooklyn College. In 2013, he became a full-time professor at the University of KwaZulu-Natal in South Africa. “This feels like home,” he reflects. “This is home. I am home.”
