Released in 2001 and awarded a Grammy for Best Latin Jazz Album in 2002, Charlie Haden's *Nocturne* is an extraordinary album that defies all established labels and patterns in jazz and beyond.
Latin jazz, ballads, songs, world music... none of these qualifiers would be satisfactory, as the musical heritage that inspired this album is so vast, as are the musical experiences of the jazz personalities gathered on this record: Gonzalo Rubalcaba on piano, Ignacio Berroa on drums and percussion, Pat Metheny on guitar, Federico Britos Ruiz on violin, as well as Joe Lovano and David Sanchez on saxophones. Exploring the bolero, a characteristic Latin dance rhythm, the group succeeded in creating a language and a climate of serenity, a romantic atmosphere that is restrained yet exuberant.
