After the sad passing of Ornette Coleman on 11 June 2015, Neneh has paid tribute to the late and great jazz saxophonist by sharing her memories of his talents and that of her father Don Cherry in The Guardian and on BBC Radio 3.

Describing how she first met Coleman in New York when she was two and a half years old, Neneh recalls the ‘quiet intensity’ of the man behind the music.
