Mid-Week Sketches Song
Jazz icon Miles Davis released one of his greatest albums,"Sketches of Spain" in 1960. Our song today is a track from that album, "Will o' The Wisp," taken from Manuel de Falla's ballet "El Amor Brujo." The songs on this album are a prime example of Davis' fusion of jazz, classical and world music. It won the 1961 Grammy for "Best Original Jazz Composition." Enjoy.
