Celebrating it's 40th year as an ensemble, the Grammy nominated jazz-fusion quartet Oregon (Ralph Towner: guitar, piano, synthesizer, trumpet; Paul McCandless: woodwind instruments; Glen Moore: double bass, violin, piano; and Mark Walker: drum kit) has inspired audiences worldwide in renowned concert halls including Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, Berlin Philharmonic Hall, and Vienna's Mozartsaal; at international jazz clubs and major festivals such as Montreux, Pori, Berlin, Montreal, and Newport Jazz. The music by this American quartet is always one without boundaries, an adventurous merging of jazz, chamber atmospheres and folkloristic scents coming from various latitudes and longitudes. Yet Oregon's music is also one where composition and improvisation find the right balance, in the depth of a profound melodic breath that in the course of time has remained one of the principle characteristics that distinguishes the group.
