His official Facebook page paid homage to him by sharing a photo of him strolling on the lawn in an outdoor setting. The text read:
“Wayne Shorter calmly resumed his massive voyage into the unfathomable today at 4 a.m. He was encircled by adoring relatives. ‘It’s time to go get a fresh body and return back to finish the task,’ he says. Nam Myoho Renge Kyo is a Buddhist prayer.”
Herbie Hancock, a musician, also showed his sorrow on Facebook, posting a black-and-white photo of himself and Shorter, both happy and debating something. Hancock stated:
“As with every human being, he is unique and achieved the zenith of perfection as a saxophone, composer, orchestrator, and, most recently, author of the superb opera “… Iphigenia “I mourn being around him and his unique Wyane-isms, but his soul lives on in my heart.”
Antonio Sanchez, a drummer, and songwriter, also shared a picture of himself standing with Shorter, adding that there will never be another like the late artist. Sanchez, he continued, altered the way music is performed, conceived, written, and perceived.
