If you're a fan of jazz, this will be a great addition to your collection. Ditto if you love the music of West Side Story. Dave Grusin and the all-star team of players and arrangers have provided spectacular new treatments of these wonderful tunes.

I have been a fan of Dave Grusin since I was a kid. He is a musical genius and that genius shows through in this DVD. Watching the performers was my favorite visual part of the DVD. The music from start to finish was an incredible interpretation of Leonard Bernstein's West Side Story and I am certain that Mr. Bernstein would give a "high five" for this work. Thanks Mr. Grusin!

This CD/DVD is worth the price just for Michael Brecker's solo on the track "Something's Coming." Amazing work... listening to Mike play in New York in front of the best studio musicians around is like watching Michael Jordan at an All-Star game or Tiger Woods at a golf clinic. Top notch.

If you like an outstanding sound, buy the DTS CD. The ... Read More

I have owned this DVD for many years, and decided to look for more like it. When I saw some of the negative reviews, I just had to write mine. These people generally do NOT understand jazz, or the basis for it. Jazz transforms the normal into something special when done well.

It has become one of my favorite DVD's, and I kept it.
