Description
They had known and respected each other since the mid-Forties and in 1948-49 they were the two primary architects Behind the Birth of the Cool, with respect to both the perennial nonet album and the cool sound which became associated with it and which developed into a new jazz style. Miles Ahead, Miles first recording on flugelhorn, is a completely refined product in which the arrangements, the repertoire and the mood of every improvisation were carefully selected. Even though the album is formed by pieces by different composers, Evans arrangements create the effect of a concerto more than individual pieces put together.
