His first improvisation session was on the violin as a small child, but when Immanuel Wilkins switched to the saxophone, his musical destiny was sealed. His critically acclaimed début, "Omega", was released in 2020 on the Blue Note label and in the four years since then, Wilkins has explored many different facets of jazz with his quartet. As he embarks upon a European tour, the musician tells us about exploring the Blues and its meaning for Black history and identity on his latest record. We also discuss the ritualistic power of music and sound.
