THERE ARE AS MANY FLAVOURS OF JAZZ AS THERE ARE PEBBLES ON A BEACH, BUT THE MAJORITY COMBINE RHYTHMIC INVENTION WITH INSTRUMENTAL VIRTUOSITY TO CREATE A SOUND THAT CAN TRANSPORT THE LISTENER TO A DIFFERENT PLANE. OUR COMPILATION FEATURES DUOS, TRIOS, BANDS AND ORCHESTRAS PLAYING MUSIC INSPIRED BY AFRICA, BRAZIL AND ALL POINTS IN-BETWEEN. FILM THEMES, STANDARDS, CHARTTOPPERS AND RELATIVE OBSCURITIES HAVE BEEN CAREFULLY ASSEMBLED TO PROVIDE A WIDE-RANGING PICTURE OF THE JAZZ INSTRUMENTAL.
