Wynton Marsalis, one of the most respected living jazz musicians, returns with a new large scale work, recorded with his longtime collaborators Jazz At Lincoln Center, with a guest appearance from flamenco legend Paco De Lucia. Inspired by travels in Spain, and recorded in Vitoria, Vitoria Suite is a 12-part work, the structure inspired by the 12 measures of the blues. Marsalis uses the impulse of the blues as a foundation to jointly explore the music of two worlds and two cultures: the jazz and blues of North America and the indigenous Basque music and Flamenco of Spain.
