Orchestre national de jazz de Montréal - Miles Smiles | Wayne Shines (2023) [Hi-Res]

Captured in concert on September 14, 2019, under the direction and arrangements of Jean-Nicolas Trottier, theOrchestre National de Jazz de Montréal paid tribute to the legendary quintet formed by Miles Davis, Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock, Ron Carter and Tony Williams, as well as to the sublime moments that these virtuosos were able to create between 1965 and 1968, particularly engraved on the mythical albums that are ESP, Miles Smiles and Nefertiti. At the head of this quintet, invigorated by the drums of the very young Williams, Davis and his collaborators gradually broke away from established formats to create a new music, exciting in its coherence and freedom.
