A "morning song" from festival season inspired this album's third piece "The Pan Piper" and its fourth track is the aforementioned "Saeta." Midway through this album's first track the music lightens as the muted trumpet joins with the bass played by Paul Chambers, and that piece begins with a quiet castanet solo leading to the full orchestra's entrance including the drums and percussion played by Jimmy Cobb and Elvin Jones. Conductor Gil Evans helped arrange Joaquin Rodrigo's "Concierto de Aranjuez" and Manuel de Falla's "Will o Wisp" for this album. For 10 points, name this 1960 album by Miles Davis inspired largely by Iberian folk music.
