Got this from ECM today, what a lineup! Wow, anyone that goes to this, pls post your experience. "Happy Birthday Eberhard! Today Eberhard Weber, the great German bass player and true jazz legend, turns 75! A two night gala concert with an impressive lineup will be staged in Stuttgart to celebrate Eberhard this Friday and Saturday. Pat Metheny, Jan Garbarek, Ralph Towner, Gary Burton, Michael Gibbs, Danny Gottlieb, Scott Colley, and Paul McCandless are set to appear at Theaterhaus Stuttgart. At the first night Weber will be presented a lifetime award, the newly created Landes-Jazzpreis Baden Württemberg, honoring his artistic work and influence on musicians worldwide. ECM Records congratulates with the release of Eberhard’s new album "Encore" which will available with immediate effect from the ECM website. International release date will follow next month. " |

For those unable to read the German comments about the concert, read this

And for the happy few who can read German have a lokk at this:

I think the composition by Pat was certainly the most daring and successful contribution.
I hope this might be seen on DVD.
You may watch a bit of the concert here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdhDQTTx1WI - alas no the part
