Connecting the unexpected: Jazzpaña – Flamenco meets Jazz - a special multicultural statement. After Jazzpaña.(1992) and Jazzpaña.II (2000) now alailable as live version. And even a third world has been added: Flamenco - Jazz - Kuba. Recorded at the Berlin Philharmonic and at the WDR 3 Jazzfest Dortmund.
“Music for people with open ears and open minds. Far removed from a predefined style. Without any fear of mixing genres.” In 1992, this was the understanding of jazz that producer Siggi Loch based the launch of his ACT adventure on. The label’s very first recording, Jazzpaña, was to become a milestone and synonym for ACT’s philosophy, and became a double Grammy nominee in the process. Jazzpaña brought the stars of the “Nuevo Flamenco” from Spain together with US jazz greats such as Michael Brecker, Peter Erskine and Al Di Meola, backed by the sound of the WDR Big Band. The arrangements came from Vince Mendoza, though a little-known artist at the time, he is now one of the most versatile and prolific composer-arranger-conductors of the last two decades, a multi-Grammy Award winner.
