Jack DeJohnette is considered one of the US�s greatest living jazz drummers. Foday Musa Suso has pushed the limits of the Kora (African Harp) in his excursions with Herbie Hancock, Bill Laswell, the Kronos quartet and Phillip Glass. When these two virtuosos come together to play music, it�s a special event.

�From the Heart of the Masters� captures them in performance at the 2003 Montreal Jazz Festival. The program is peppered with commentary by both musicians, but the main focus is on the music, and there�s plenty of it, from groove-based, trance inducing pieces to passages of inspired improvisation. DeJohnette�s elegant touch is a perfect foil for Suso�s harp, while his rhythmic dynamism pushes the kora master to new and uncharted territories.
