Jazz at Berlin Philharmonic XIX

Description

Recorded live at the Philharmonie in Berlin during the Jazz at Berlin Philharmonic concert celebrating Nils Landgren's 70th birthday, this album captures an exceptional evening, crowned by a standing ovation from a completely captivated audience. Designed as a tribute to his idol and later collaborator, the late Joe Sample, it brings together songs that hold a special place in Nils's personal journey. For this occasion, the greatest jazz musicians engage with the remarkable brass of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, in arrangements by the multi-instrumentalist and Grammy winner Magnus Lindgren. Singer China Moses also lends her voice and charisma to this vibrant celebration, where emotion, virtuosity, and generosity shine brilliantly.
