Wayne Shorter Quartet
North Sea Jazz Classics
The North Sea Jazz Festival is the largest indoor music festival in the world, known globally as the event where the past, present and future of jazz are featured within three days. Next to a firm base of jazz as the festival's staple music genre, many others, such as blues, soul, funk, or hip hop, pass by. In 1986, renowned American saxophonist Wayne Shorter performed with his quartet at the North Sea Jazz festival in The Hague. The acclaimed musician has quite a notable career, having been a composer for Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers, a member of Miles Davis' Second Great Quintet and a co-founder of the lauded jazz fusion group Weather Report.
