Miles Ahead
Event
When he joined Miles Davis, Canadian arranger Gil Evans brought a bold proposal: the recording of an album in the form of a suite with a jazz orchestra with extended instrumentation. The album was called Miles Ahead, and it was followed by two others crowning this fruitful partnership. Jazz history would no longer be written without these chapters, which, according to Miles, sought to bring the melody back to the centre of improvisation. The soloist invited to reconstitute, alongside Orquestra Jazz de Matosinhos, the unique sounds of Miles Ahead is Gileno Santana, Portuguese-Brazilian trumpeter with an intense career and international recognition.
