**Enrico Rava, long a key figure in European jazz, has been a mentor for successive
generations of Italian players. His celebratory Edizione Speciale, recorded live
at the Middelheim Festival in Antwerp, brings together a team of young improvisers
who play his music with fire and élan, accompanying his fountain of melodic ideas,
while also taking advantage of the free space that the extensive musical forms open
up.**

The group’s repertoire includes material from the trumpeter/flugelhornist’s early
recording Enrico Rava Quartet (1978) and Wild Dance (2015), plus a rendition of “
Once Upon a Summertime” – the English version of Michel Legrand’s “La valse des 
lilas” – as well as the universally known Cuban song “Quizás, Quizás, Quizás”.
