Wayne Shorter, 82, is widely acknowledged as of jazz's most important composers, as well as one of its premier saxophonists. He's also one of its most original thinkers, whose inspirations can be short as one sentence or as broad as a musing about the nature of the universe. Jazz Night In America visits Shorter at his home in Los Angeles to talk with him about where his ideas come from. And we catch him as a featured soloist with the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra in a special career-spanning concert where band members devised special arrangements of his tunes.
