Album Notes & Community Reviews

Composed as a sprawling five-part suite, 'El grito' is a monumental achievement in the history of Argentine jazz. Jorge L贸pez Ruiz arranged the piece for a massive ensemble, blending the sophistication of large-scale orchestral writing with the fiery improvisation of post-bop and modal jazz. The work was conceived as a profound artistic response to the political turmoil and military coups destabilizing the region during the late 1960s.
