“…Fifty-three years later, trumpeter Nicholas Payton
bestows his own genius, personal vision and modern sensibilities
to the entirety of the music from the historic album.
The trumpeter stood at center stage amidst 19 select members of Switzerland’s highly regarded ensemble,
(one of my favorite conductor: Dennis Russell Davies)
He was also joined by his longtime rhythm section in
percussionist Daniel Sadownick
for this live recording of what could be considered
the second coming of Davis’ masterpiece, Sketches of Spain…”
