After almost exactly ten years away, the legendary saxophonist Charles Lloyd is returning to Müpa Budapest. Back in February 2012, no one could have suspected that Miklós Lukács, who performed as a guest musician in that concert, would go on to become an important musical partner of the master for many years. In 2015, Lloyd, whose musical career was by then already half a century old, released a significant live album that saw him return to the Blue Note record label after 30 years away. The record was Wild Man Dance, a six-part suite interwoven with the reverberations of string instruments.
Another reason that 2015 was a particularly memorable year for Charles Lloyd: he received an NEA Jazz Masters award, the highest national honor for jazz musicians in the United States. It was well-deserved, as despite his reserved, contemplative personality, his name is tied to some of the most important milestones in the history of jazz. He worked with Phineas Newborn and Cannonball Adderley, helped Keith Jarrett and Jack DeJohnette start their careers, and has also sought out new paths with the Hungarian Gábor Szabó.
Lexus is the the key sponsor of the Jazz Legends programme.
