Refreshingly Different Treatment To a Guitar Concerto Classi
Frederick Baptist | Singapore | 11/25/2006
(4 out of 5 stars)
"Ever the innovator and experimenter, Miles Davis does it again and this time he tries his hand at a brilliant classical masterpiece that was originally composed for guitar by the late, great composer, Rodrigo for his friend the also late and great, Segovia. In fact, he does such a good job that you'd be forgiven for thinking that this was always meant to be a trumpet concerto. The other Spanish themed tracks are also very well interpreted making this a welcome change of project from what one is used to when it comes to Miles' music.
This version of the album is also a treat for fans as the mini-lp replica sleeve design is very well executed and the mastering job is very well done for a very good sound quality making this album a very pleasant listening experience. Recommended."
