At first glance it seems like an unusual collaboration - Whanganui reggae band Roots Provider jamming with jazz legend Rodger Fox.
But it all makes sense because they're rehearsing for International Jazz Day this coming Tuesday, April 30.
Every year, thousands of jazz events are organised around the world. This year one of our oldest institutions, Whanganui Collegiate, will be the place to celebrate International Jazz Day.
"There's a serious part of 'Whanganui celebrates International Jazz Day'," said organiser Ken Chernoff. "That is 'International Jazz Day', and then there's the fun part, which is 'Whanganui celebrates'."
Jazz Day is an initiative from UNESCO, an organisation tasked with creating world peace, and music is one of the most powerful tools at its disposal.
