Noro Morales and His Orchestra - Lecuona's Afro-Cuban Suite

Another stunning release from the Vik label, designed to maximize the impact of your mid-century Hi-Fi system. Pianist and bandleader Noro Morales takes on the complex, fiercely rhythmic compositions of Cuban maestro Ernesto Lecuona. The result is a volcanic eruption of Afro-Cuban jazz. The percussion sections are incredibly layered and propulsive, driving aggressive, swinging brass arrangements and Morales' own muscular piano playing. The dramatic, highly stylized cover art signals exactly what you're in for—a sophisticated, deeply rhythmic, and completely thrilling Latin jazz experience.
