Founded in 1967 by Claude Nobs, the Montreux Jazz Festival has established itself as one of the most prestigious annual music events in the world. The extraordinary list of artists who have played there is drawn from across the musical spectrum and from around the world. Filmed on the closing night of the 2011 festival, this concert features Deep Purple playing their classic hits with the accompaniment of a full orchestra conducted by Stephen "BK" Bentley-Klein. The orchestral arrangements give added depth and colour to the familiar songs and Deep Purple respond with one of their finest performances. Deep Purple and Montreux have a long history together, as immortalised in "Smoke on the Water", and this wonderful concert adds even more to that legend.
