肯尼迪中心荣誉奖项目至今已有41个年头，该奖项旨在表彰那些为我们的文化和世界做出巨大贡献的杰出艺术家。 本周让我们一起来看看今年的获奖者！
我们在本周早些时候已经向大家介绍了三位获奖者。接下来是这位著名的爵士萨克斯管演奏家兼作曲家。他当之无愧地被誉为天才、开拓者、梦想家，以及世界最伟大的作曲家之一。 他与迈尔斯·戴维斯（Miles Davis）、琼尼·米歇尔（Joni Mitchell）、斯迪利·丹（Steely Dan）、卡洛斯·桑塔纳 （Carlos Santana）等人都有过合作。他获得了11项格莱美奖，其中包括一项终身成就奖。但令人钦佩的是，他并没有满足于自己的成就。如今，他正在制作自己的第一张专辑。你能猜出第四位获奖者是谁吗？是的，他就是韦恩·肖特（Wayne Shorter）。
In its 41st year, the Kennedy Center Honors program recognizes exceptional artists who have contributed so much to our culture and our world. Join us this week as we feature this year’s honorees!
We already introduced three honorees earlier this week. The famous jazz saxophonist and composer is next. He deservedly has been called – a genius, trailblazer, a visionary, and one of the world’s greatest composers. He’s played with Miles Davis, Joni Mitchell, Steely Dan, Carlos Santana – the list goes on. He’s won 11 Grammy Awards, including a lifetime achievement award, but admirably, he does not rest on his laurels. He’s now working on his first album. Can you guess who the fourth honoree is? Yes, he is Wayne Shorter.
