Directions in Music

Rating:
Usually ships in 24 hrs
Price: Under $15

In 2001 Herbie Hancock, Michael Brecker, Roy Hargrove, John Patitucci and Brian Blade embarked upon "Directions In Music" -- a 30-date tour to celebrate the music of Miles Davis and John Coltrane, both of whom would have been 75 in that year.

"Directions In Music" captures the group's performance at Massey Hall in Toronto. The idea was not to recreate original Miles and Trane recordings but to evoke anew the creative spirit and boundary-breaking that was the hallmark of their genius. The quintet fractures, deconstructs and re-harmonises compositions by -- or associated with -- Davis and Coltrane adding shifting grooves and time signatures.
