About

This tribute concert was performed and recorded as part of Musikfest Berlin on 16 September 2024. The program features some of his greatest hits from the big band era as well as compositions from his later creative period such as ‘Night Creature’ and ‘A Tone Parallel to Harlem’: works that made him one of the founders of the ‘Third Stream’, that typically American combination of jazz with elements of European symphonic music and classical modernism.
