Jazz at The Lincoln Center Orchestra

• 4 LPS 180 GRAM

• AUDIOPHILE VINYL

• DIGITAL DOWNLOAD

An amazing and beautiful deluxe Box-Set edition of the world-renowned Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra’s dazzling first performance in Cuba.

Recorded in front of a clamorous, sold-out crowd at Havana’s Mella Theatre in October 2010, this set, containing 4 x 180 Gram Audiophile-Vinyl Lps, captures the big band’s unforgettable tracing of the connections between American jazz and Afro-Cuban music. LIVE IN CUBA was the inaugural release from Blue Engine Records, the new platform created by the JLCO to make available its vast archive of recorded concerts to jazz audiences.

This recording, a compilation of songs chosen from the Havana shows, includes a full color and detailed booklet with photos and comments from members of the band. Exclusive to this edition as well is a digital download with an unreleased song with Chucho Valdes as a bonus.
