Peter Beets takes compositions by Albéniz, de Falla and Granados as the starting point for this jazz sextet recording. His piano is joined by trumpeter Ian Cleaver, saxophonists Gideon Tazelaar and Nate Jones, bassist Reuben Rogers and drummer Willie Jones III.
Serenata Andaluza, La Vida Breve and Danza Ritual del Fuego bring Spanish classical repertoire into the ensemble’s swinging arrangements. The horns share the melodic work rather than leaving every theme to the piano.
