Charles Lloyd Sky Quartet featuring Jason Moran, Larry Grenadier, Eric Harland

In the organizer's words:

Saxophone legend with all-star quartet

At the age of 87, Charles Lloyd could actually retire in comfort. But the man from Memphis isn't even thinking about it. On the contrary: for his album "The Sky Will Still Be There Tomorrow", the saxophonist, who also occasionally takes up the flute, has assembled a star line-up and taken stock of his art with Jason Moran on piano, Larry Grenadier on bass and Brian Blade on drums. The result is a collection of new tracks and revisited Lloyd classics, ranging from soulful ballads to a bebop-like homage to Thelonious Monk. He now presents this variety with Eric Harland instead of Brian Blade on drums in the Elbphilharmonie and proves that he has lost none of his irrepressible creativity even in old age.
