"Live + Mastered" what does that mean?
Our Sound engineers do the best job on earth to work on the sound of our live shows to make it even more "fresh", "brilliant", "differentiated" - what ever you may call it. We invite you to watch and listen to this mastered version (with all the details in the arrangements made more "stand out"). If you wish here you will find the livestream version to compare: • Manhattan Jazz Message...
We would love to hear your comments! Do you hear the difference? What do you like most?

The steaming drains, the skyscrapers, the exclusive clubs, and the glistening neon lights at Times Square: Dick Oatts, Gary Smulyan and Jim McNeely take you to their musical hometown New York. Nowhere is jazz music as present as in the Big Apple. In this program, Oatts, Smulyan and McNeely formulate their very own jazz messages and bring a little bit of the New York flair to Frankfurt. But then again: Hasn’t Frankfurt always been Germany’s very own Manhattan anyway?
german:
Dampfende Gullys, tiefe Straßenschluchten, exklusive Clubs und das gleißende Neonlicht am Times Square: Dick Oatts, Gary Smulyan und Jim McNeely entführen Sie nach New York, in ihre musikalische Heimat. Denn wohl nirgends ist der Jazz so präsent wie im Big Apple. Oatts, Smulyan und McNeely formulieren in diesem Programm ihre ganz eigenen Jazz Messages und holen ein bisschen vom New Yorker Flair in den hr-Sendesaal nach Frankfurt. Aber das galt ja schon immer als das deutsche Manhattan, oder?
