Ernest Dawkins, a well-known American saxophonist and composer, will be our guest on The World Show on Sunday.
Ernest has consistently worked to make sure his music captures the vibrant and changing cultural memory of the African American aesthetic. He has also produced several projects that demonstrate his strong ties to South Africa. "Memory in the Centre, an Afro Opera: Homage to Nelson Mandela" was performed and recorded by him in 2014. More recently, he achieved the collaborative "Englewood to Soweto Project," which resulted in the recording of "We Want Our Land Back."

This album and two of his other noteworthy recent releases will be examined.
