# The EFF says South Africa has lost one of its greatest musical sons in legendary pianist, composer, and cultural ambassador, Abdullah Ibrahim. The 91-year-old passed away in Germany after a short illness. The EFF says it is grateful that people were able to witness one final historic performance by this music giant at the Cape Town International Jazz Festival earlier this year. It says that through his music, Ibrahim gave voice to the struggles, resilience, and aspirations of South Africans, proving that art can be a powerful instrument of resistance.
