In 2000, Lang Van production distributed Purple Refrain - a live jazz session performed by the jazz pianist Peter Zak and his band. With John Wiitala on bass, Edward McClary on drums, and Dave Tidball on saxophone, Peter Zak turned Vietnamese pop standards into brilliant jazz tunes. Zak"s unique approach to music and his ingenious escapes from the written melody make Purple Refrain an unforgettable listening experience. He has not only found his way into the music, but also breaks down the melodies, then re-assembles them with his own interpretation to suit the complex, syncopated rhythms of jazz.
