  • Sketches of Spain

    Spanish Splashes

    Miles Davis and arranger/composer Gil Evans collaborated extensively over the course of their creative careers. However, Sketches of Spain stands out from their other albums with its subtle colors and relaxed evocations of Spanish tradition. The lone trumpet of Miles and Evans’s enticing orchestration blends perfectly jazz and classical traditions, and tonight we’ll hear the songs The Pan Piper and Solea. We also hear film music by Eleni Karaindrou and Nico Muhly as well as pieces by David Lang and Thelonious Monk.

    For those who liked the two 15th century pieces that were just played, Sylvia Rhyne and Eric Redlinger (the singers) go by the name Asteria (http://asteriamusica.com).
