Description
On May 4th, 2024, Jamael Dean sat at the
bench of a grand piano at 2220 Arts +
Archives in Los Angeles. He didn’t know what
he’d play until his fingers struck the ivory. For
the next hour the prodigious jazz talent
improvised a solo piano set, seamlessly
weaving together original compositions,
improvisations, and his reconstructions of jazz
standards.
 Oriki Duuru, which means “piano poems” in
Yoruba, is an unabridged recording of what
unfolded that night.
