Marcus Miller’s latest album, A Night in Monte-Carlo makes its U.S. debut today. In celebration of the release, Concord Music Group and DR Strings have teamed up with No Treble to offer No Treble readers a chance to win some cool Marcus Miller prizes.
A Night in Monte-Carlo, recorded in 2008, showcases Miller being backed by his renowned quartet and the Monte-Carlo Philharmonic Orchestra. Special guests, music lovers won’t want to miss, include trumpeter Roy Hargrove as well as singer, songwriter and guitarist Raul Midón.
A Night in Monte-Carlo spans almost a quarter century of music from opera to jazz, including a modernized spiritual and a timeless ballad.
Reflecting on the concert, Marcus shares, “I loved that the audience was full of so many people who had never experienced anything like this. Some were jazz lovers who’d never been to a symphony or vice versa, or young people seeing their first jazz concert. Personally, I was very inspired by the collaboration with the orchestra…so much so that the sound lingered in my mind long afterward. When I returned to my studio in Los Angeles, I arranged and recorded “Strange Fruit” and added it as a bonus track to the Monte Carlo CD as a reflection of the impression this experience has left on me.”
