Wayne Shorter, one of the great tenor saxophonists and composers of the modern jazz era, is an enigmatic and searching musician and personality. He was once labeled by jazz critic Larry Kart as “one of the most dangerous players to ever pick up a horn--a man whose solos were described by various critics as 'quietly maniacal' and 'clinically precise,' full of 'abrupt changes of mood' and 'wild satanic humor.'" Those qualities carried over into Shorter's compositions, which have been recorded with increasing frequency by younger jazz artists for the past three decades." This program features the music he wrote for Miles Davis, Art Blakey, and for his own dates as a leader in the 1960s.
