Product Details

Released in 1960, Sketches of Spain grew out of Miles Davis and Gil Evans's shared obsession with Joaquín Rodrigo's "Concierto de Aranjuez," an unlikely entry point that resulted in one of the most emotionally raw recordings either man ever made. The three bonus tracks here offer a rare window into the studio process behind that alchemy, showing how Davis and Evans shaped the orchestral canvas before arriving at the definitive takes.


One of the greatest jazz recordings of all time, Sketches of Spain features Miles with large ensemble arranged and conducted by Gil Evans. Truly a jazz milestone, this album presents Davis and Evans at their musical peak. This title is part of Sony's Jazz Masterpiece reissue series, featuring 20-bit digital remastering, deluxe packaging and bonus material. Additional tracks: "Song of Our Country" and 2 alternate takes of "Concierto de Aranjuez"; 19 minutes of new music!
