Philip Cohran And The Artistic Heritage Ensemble-Malcolm X (1968) HD

[fantacelah]

The team got together again [July 9th] to celebrate the life of my master teacher, Kelan Phil Cohran. Heres the live video: https://youtu.be/7hv5wwVSJ9M . "ON THE BEACH," Remastered will be an annual event, commemorating how he started the african movement in Chicago, through music, the arts, health info, languages, etc. Do your research! (#AffroArtsTheater, the #ArtisticHeritageEnsemble, #AACM, #SunRa , #ThePharoahs, #OscarBrownJr, the legacy goes on...) 💥💥💥💥photo by @kyndredstudio💥💥💥💥💥 The song I sang, 'Morning Star,' was one that was dear to my heart. One that we always performed together (8 years.) This time, I didn't have the melodious, magical Harp accompanying me. But I know he was pleased. It's such a prophet song that he wrote....." ...we'll be kings again!" He was always ahead of his time. #Althea Teamer danced w/ #kelan back in the days of the original "On the Beach, " movement. She's such an amazing dancer & she always designs her own costumes for her performances. She adds the extra SunRa spice to the equation, lol. We had Malik Cohran on keys (& composition.) He was always #Philcohran 's right hand man (his son.) Then @sonyasviolin graced the stage with her violin. Kamilah on the flute, chuckaluck on guitar, & Ron Prince on bass. Then we flowed into the finale, "the Mistral." We were joined by Aquilla Graves (Phil Cohran's kin) & the phenomenal progeny @hypnoticbrass ensemble. It was such an honor to have studied under such a genius. His legacy will live on forever. ❤💫🕉 #family #creative #music #legend #vocalist #singer #realmusic #ancestoral #cosmic more that #jazz (at Chicago, Illinois)
