In this article I will introduce the early years of Wayne Shorter. The tremendous creativity of this musician, who wrote many jazz standards, won 10 Grammy Awards and was awarded many more prizes for his improvisation and composer art, can not be dealt with in one article. After completing his studies and years in the army, he joined the group around Art Blakey in 1959. We hear a concert of this formation from 1961:

In diesem Artikel werde ich die frühen Jahre von Wayne Shorter vorstellen. Die ungeheure Kreativität dieses Musikers, der als Komponist viele Standards des Jazz geschrieben hat, 10 Grammy Awards einheimsen konnte und mit vielen weitern Preisen für seine Improvisations- und Komponistenkunst ausgezeichnet wurde, kann nicht in einem Artikel abgehandelt werden. Nach dem Studium und den Jahren in der Armee trat er 1959 in die Gruppe um Art Blakey ein, wir hören ein Konzert dieser Formation aus dem Jahre 1961:

Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers - Tokyo 1961

After several attempts, Miles Davis succeeded in bringing Wayne into his quintet in 1964, where his compositions helped to establish them as one of the most important groups in jazz. We hear him, here with Miles Davis in his Quintet 1969:

Nach mehreren Versuchen gelang es Miles Davis 1964 Wayne in sein Quintet zu holen, in dem er mit seinen Kompositionen dazu beitrug dieses als eines der wichtigsten Gruppen des Jazz zu etablieren. Wir hören ihn, hier mit Miles Davis in seinem Quintet 1969:

Footprints - Miles Davis Quintet

Sanctuary - Miles Davis Quintet

Bitches Brew - Miles Davis Quintet (Part 1)

Bitches Brew - Miles Davis Quintet (Part 2)

The following year he switched permanently to the soprano saxophone, but this is a new story with Weather Report, which I like to leave Wolfram (@w74).

Im folgenden Jahr wechselte er dauerhaft zum Sopransaxophon, dies ist aber dann eine neue Geschichte mit Weather Report, die ich gerne Wolfram (@w74) überlasse.
