Miles Davis – Sketches Of Spain Special Edition LP

68,00 

Miles Davis and Gil Evans collaborated on high-concept projects three different times during their celebrated careers. For their final act, they created Sketches of Spain, a peak moment in each luminary’s legacy. The transformative album weds Spanish themes, lush orchestrations, romantic timbres, and Davis’ increasingly lyrical methods in a tender ceremony that resonates more than six decades after its original release in 1960. Seldom, if ever, did Davis ever so expressively and liberally paint with color. And in Evans, he has a likewise-minded partner to help draw out tones, shades, layers, and textures. What they achieved continues to draw praise from the global music community. Ranked #358 on Rolling Stone’s 500 Greatest Albums of All Time and deemed “a work of unparalleled grace and lyricism” by noted scribe J.D. Considine, the Grammy Award-winning effort has never sounded or looked better.

Description

Sketches of Spain is a studio album by American jazz musician Miles Davis, released on July 18, 1960, by Columbia Records. Recording took place between November 1959 and March 1960 at Columbia’s 30th Street Studio in New York City. An extended version of the second movement of Joaquín Rodrigo’s Concierto de Aranjuez (1939) is included, as well as a piece called “Will o’ the Wisp”, from Manuel de Falla’s ballet El amor brujo (1914–1915). Sketches of Spain is regarded as an exemplary recording of third stream, a musical fusion of jazz, European classical, and styles from world music.
