David Sanborn/Music of Gil Evans Denmark 2003 3Days FM Broadcast Edition

This four-disc set, a must-listen for fans, features a rare, three-day live performance by David Sanborn with the Danish Radio Big Band in March 2003, in which he honored the legacy of his mentor, Gil Evans, by recreating Gil’s music. Recorded using broadcast-quality audio, this specially recorded live performance is of the highest quality, and is ready for release as is. Onstage, the beautiful sound of the Danish Radio Big Band, conducted by Maria Schneider, is fused with David Sanborn’s soulful alto voice, creating a rare performance that garnered widespread coverage in Europe. Perhaps it’s no coincidence that Sanborn’s first professional performance was as a member of Gil Evans’ orchestra.
