Legendary arranger and composer Gil Evans was honored at the 1971 Berliner Jazztage (today known as Jazzfest Berlin) as a kind of "artist in residence" by leading the "Berlin Dream Band" consisted of Berlin´s finest musicians. They played a set with Evans originals and some Kurt Weill songs. Earlier that year he had released the album "Where Flamingos Fly" on ARTISTS HOUSE.
