Originally released in 2003, this album brings together an all-star ensemble and a suite of deeply textured works that blend acoustic jazz, chamber-like writing, and subtle Latin and European influences.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"467\" data-end=\"855\"\u003eRecorded with members of his long-standing quartet alongside additional orchestral voices, \u003cem data-start=\"558\" data-end=\"567\"\u003eAlegría\u003c\/em\u003e continues Shorter’s evolution beyond traditional form, favouring fluid structures, open improvisation, and shifting harmonic landscapes.
