He received considerable recognition in the professional scene as well as awards. His song “Don’t Worry, Be Happy“ earned him his initial worldwide recognition. He has worked together with many other artists and in 1990 he won a Grammy for his lifetime achievements. This year he has taken to the road as conductor.
