    About this album

    Sketches Of Spain is a landmark Miles Davis album that broadened jazz’s orchestral and harmonic possibilities. Issued in 1960, it paired Davis with arranger Gil Evans for a suite shaped by Spanish themes, most famously reworking Joaquín Rodrigo’s Concierto de Aranjuez alongside traditional material such as The Pan Piper and Solea. Rather than simply crossing genres, the record explores restraint, colour and slow-burning tension, with Davis’s muted trumpet set against Evans’s carefully layered orchestration. Widely regarded as one of the great jazz-orchestral collaborations, it helped define the modal era’s openness to new forms and timbres.
