The subtitle of Arild Andersen's new ECM release "Celebration" more or less simply states the obvious, "Celebrate The Music Of ECM". Performing with the Scottish National Jazz Orchestra under the direction of tenor saxophonist Tommy Smith (also prominently featured on his horn), "Celebration" is a collection of 7 pieces composed by artists who have all played a major role on the label. There are pieces by Dave Holland, Jan Garbarek, Chick Corea, Trygve Seim, Keith Jarrett and by Andersen himself.
This is just one of an incredible number of releases from ECM over the past few months, and today at 2 pm on our live show we too will "Celebrate The Music of ECM" as we will be playing Andersen's release as well as previously unrelased material from Keith Jarrett, Magico, FLY, Manu Katche, Michael Formanek to name only a handful of the amazing music that's come our way from Manfred Eicher's uniquely creative label.
Come on by and share the music with us. Click here to link to the stream.
