The suite is a tour de force multi-movement composition that explores Dominican rhythms such as merengue, pambiche, bachata, and palo, all under the rubric of the modern jazz big band, highlighted by forward-thinking modern harmonies and jazz arrangements. A highlight of the piece features an exceptional solo adapted by the legendary Dominican alto saxophonist, Tavito Vazquez, arranged by Garcia for the entire sax section. More info |
