Note

Sketches of Spain è uno degli album nati dalla collaborazione tra Miles Davis e l'amico e compositore Gil Evans. L'album, come annunciato dal titolo (Schizzi spagnoli) si basa su un programma costruito su musiche spagnole, sia tradizionali sia colte (il disco contiene un arrangiamento del secondo movimento del Concierto de Aranjuez di Joaquin Rodrigo[2] e un brano, intitolato Will o' the Wisp, da un balletto di Manuel de Falla).

Nell'autobiografia, Davis dice che l'idea del disco gli venne dopo aver ascoltato il Concierto de Aranjuez. Evans curò gli arrangiamenti e introdusse gli altri pezzi, tra cui Saeta, un brano popolare di cante hondo andaluso per la processione del Venerdì Santo, tratto e riarrangiato dal volume Spanish Folk Music di Alan Lomax, e Solea, un brano peruviano.

Davis, nell'autobiografia, ricorda che gli arrangiamenti erano così densi che il trombettista Bernie Glow diventò paonazzo per lo sforzo di seguire la scrittura, e che dovette parlare a Evans perché semplificasse un po' la scrittura.

In effetti, la situazione minacciò di degenerare: l'orchestra trovava gli arrangiamenti di Evans troppo difficili e il produttore, Teo Macero, prese le parti dei musicisti[3]. Davis non fu di molto aiuto ad Evans, anzi non si presentò alla prima prova, probabilmente perché sconvolto da alcune vicende private[4]. Sketches of Spain è considerato uno degli album più rifiniti e accessibili mai registrati da Miles Davis, e il giudizio su di esso non è uniforme: la Penguin Guide to Jazz on CD ne parla come di "musica leggera d'alto bordo". All'uscita dell'album, Davis fu accusato di piegarsi a compromessi commerciali, e si disse che Sketches of Spain non era jazz. Secondo la rivista Rolling Stone Davis avrebbe reagito dichiarando: «È musica, e a me piace».[5]

L'album è stato pubblicato in CD dalla stessa Columbia nel 1997 con l'aggiunta di un brano non incluso nell'LP originale e di due registrazioni alternative di altrettante parti del Concierto de Aranjuez.

Nel 1961 Davis ed Evans sono stati premiati con il Grammy Award for Best Original Jazz Composition per l'album.

Nice and easy to assemble
Color: Black, Size: Standard - 4 Panel
I absolutely love this 4-panel room divider! It was super easy to assemble — I had it set up in just a few minutes. The material isn’t too see-through, which gives just the right amount of privacy while still letting some light through. It does exactly what I needed it to do and looks so clean and sleek in my space. Perfect balance of style and function — highly recommend!

It works to divide a room, but it's not easy to use.
Color: Grey, Size: 6 Panel
This comes in multiple pieces and you have to build every single piece including the cloth that is between the two poles. There are plastic clips to hold the sections together, but they easily come off if you move the dividers the wrong way or try to reposition it. The only thing holding it up is rectangular shaped feet on the bottom and they are a pain when you hit it with your toes. It works if you need to divide a room, but its not pretty and there are far better options. It's cheaply made and has a habit of falling down if you are trying to use it in a straight or slightly angled line.

Nice divider
Color: Black, Size: 6 Panel
Nice divider. Set up is a bear. I am a bit concerned with stability. Overall I like it.
