Kirk Whalum - Millenium Promise Jazz Project

At the time when the eyes of the country and the world will be focused on the quest for change and new hope in global affairs, PROMISES MADE is a heartwarming and soulful soundtrack for the times. This once-in-a-lifetime all-new project was created by the non-profit Millennium Promise Project, whose work is premised on the belief that, for the first time in history, our generation has the opportunity to end extreme poverty, hunger and disease. Grammy-nominated saxophonist Kirk Whalum, renowned Japanese pianist Takana Miyamoto, Grammy-winning vocal ensemble Take 6, veteran music producer George Duke, and KOCH recoding artist/guitarist Earl Klugh - among many others have created stunning contemporary jazz interpretations of many of the greatest songs of the last great era of change, the 1960s. The sound is thoroughly modern; the message is timeless; the effect is purely entertaining.
