A film score masterpiece from a Latin jazz innovator
A controversial work that turns political tensions in South America into music.
This work, produced as the soundtrack for the film "Under Fire," expresses the heavy theme of the Central American revolution through music. Barbieri's tenor saxophone has an intensity that borders on shouting, and it exquisitely blends Latin rhythms with jazz improvisation. It is an ambitious work that questions the relationship between politics and music.
