Pianist Herbie Hancock, tenor saxophonist Michael Brecker and trumpeter Roy Hargrove explore the themes of contemporary composers who have helped influence the progression of the continuous jazz vernacular.

After garnering international success in 2001-2002 for their celebration of the 75th anniversary of two of the most highly regarded composers in jazz history - John Coltrane and Miles Davis - the group’s sold out tour received numerous accolades, including two Grammy Awards for their live recording, “Live at Massey Hall.”

The follow up program, Directions In Music: “Our Times,” pays homage to such legendary musicians as Wayne Shorter, McCoy Tyner, Chick Corea, Jaco Pastorius, Stevie Wonder and the late Ray Charles.
