We at Posi-Tone greatly mourn the passing of Wayne Shorter and wish to offer our humble honors to his wonderful life and inspirational music. We hope this helps listeners find comfort and joy in remembrance of this beautiful person. Accordingly, with this second installment of “Shorter Moments,” we would like to celebrate the sheer beauty and ineffable genius of Wayne’s ballad compositions, lovingly performed over the recent years by a wide variety of artists from our talented roster.
