Rava,enrico - Edizione Speciale - Music CD

Enrico Rava - Edizione Speciale [Live] - Enrico Rava, long a key figure in European jazz, has been a mentor for successive generations of Italian players. His celebratory Edizione Speciale, recorded live at the Middelheim Festival in Antwerp, brings together a team of young improvisers who play his music with fire and lan, accompanying his fountain of melodic ideas, while also taking advantage of the free space that the extensive musical forms open up. The group's repertoire includes material from the trumpeter/flugelhornist's early recording Enrico Rava Quartet (1978) and Wild Dance (2015), plus a rendition of "Once Upon a Summertime" - the English version of Michel Legrand's "La valse des lilas" - as well as the universally known Cuban song "Quizs, Quizs, Quizs".
