75th DVD

This 100 minute DVD captures one of the final concerts by the legendary jazz keyboardist and composer Joe Zawinul & his Zawinul Syndicate filmed shortly before his death in September 2007. A bonus track features a duet with saxophonist Wayne Shorter performing the classic Zawinul composition 'In A Silent Way'. Keyboardist/composer Joe Zawinul was one of the all-time jazz greats. Shortly after wrapping up his summer tour with his band The Zawinul Syndicate he died on September 11 2007. On July 7 2007 at the Lugano Jazz Festival Zawinul and his band played at his 75th... birthday cutting what was to be the last multi-track recordings. Each and every track makes you feel the devotion and soul the melodic and harmonic ideas the inner drive and a boundless lust for life of this man. On August 2 2007 the last but one concert ever played by Zawinul saw the reunion of two long-time musical companions: Joe Zawinul and Wayne Shorter the stars of Weather Report. The 14-minute duet In A Silent Way contained here is pure magic created by two artists in full harmony. Tracklist: 1. Orient Express 2. Madagascar 3. Clario 4. Scarlet Woman 5.
