Passengers

by Gary Burton & Eberhard Weber

Passengers cover art

This transnational collaboration pairs the celebrated American vibraphonist with the distinctively fluid, fretless upright bass playing of Germany's Eberhard Weber. Also featuring a young Pat Metheny on guitar, the ensemble navigates intricate, lyrical compositions with an incredibly light, shimmering touch. The album is a quintessential representation of the airy, chamber-jazz aesthetic championed by producer Manfred Eicher.
