STUDY WAR NO MORE

For STUDY WAR NO MORE

I came across a book published in the fall of 2022 with the clichéd title "A History of Black Music".
Africa > Slavery > America > Suffering > Spirituality > Distress > Blues > Salvation > Gospel > Joy > Jazz > Freedom > R&B > Liberation > Soul > Flight > Hip Hop > Protest > Horror...

I didn't know much about it, so I read it all at once.
Come to think of it, I remembered that Kagoshima City, where Moriboom was born and raised, is a sister city with Georgia in the southern part of the United States, a land of hardship for black people, and is on almost the same latitude as New Orleans, the mecca of jazz.
Moriboom and Kagoshima Musicians are able to play jazz today thanks to this black culture heritage.

Let's perform a live performance with such a traditional song (black spiritual) from the southern United States and an original song composed by Moribu using the nature of Kagoshima as the material!
Let's gather members from all generations in their 10s to 50s who are active in Kagoshima.
A front member of men and women in their teens and twenties with two trumpets!
A young rhythm section that will revitalize the next Kagoshima jazz scene with the trust of Moribu.
Let's record the sound, have many people listen to it, and feel gratitude for the present and hope for the future!
"The future is full of peace."
"The current rulers!"
STUDY WAR NO MORE
