Album Description:
Sir James Galway, revered as one of the world's greatest flute players, and the two-time Grammy®-nominated Cuban music group, Tiempo Libre, offer an exuberant Afro-Cuban take on music from the Claude Bolling Jazz Suites as well as a number of vibrant new compositions. The album, named after a bustling street in Old Havana honoring the military contributions of an Irish General, marks a new cultural intersection uniting classical, jazz and Cuban music.

Put Galway and and Tiempo Libre together and you get an album that is impossible to stop listening to. There is such joy in all the music-making. This was obviously a labor of love for ... Read More

In addition, the other tracks (not from the Bolling suites) are amazing and great additions the this jazz/classical flute style. If you enjoy jazz and/or classical you will enjoy this music for years to come. If ... Read More
