Tony Kofi has just posted the following on Facebook - "I just heard some really sad news that trumpet player and UK resident Abraham Wilson just passed. We didn't know each other very well on the music scene but it's always a shock to lose someone so talented and so young. R.I.P. dear brother and may you continue to inspire wherever you go."

Yes very sad indeed Lance. I also saw Abram for the first time at the Spice of Life last August performing his music about Philippa Schuyler. I've followed him since, this is a terrible bolt from the blue.
I am totally stunned by this news. I had the pleasure of working with Abram on four occassions over the past ten years the final time being three weeks ago at Bishop Auckland Town Hall with the Durham County Youth Big Band. Abram had so much energy and time for not just the young people but also the tutors. His playing sparkled on that evening and he educated the performers and audience on the traditions of jazz with such passion. A truly inspirational performer and educator.
