"JAZZPAÑA, the most ambitious recording project ever undertaken by Siggi Loch in a most active and extensive musical career, fuses American jazz and the flamenco music of Andalusia in a most imaginative, adventurous and inspiring way. JAZZPAÑA is a showcase for the particular compositional and arranging talents of Arif Mardin and Vince Mendoza, for the impeccable and vibrant work of the WDR Big Band, for the exotic and extroverted art of Ramon El Portugues and Los Jovenes Flamencos, and for the assured and articulate playing of guest jazz stars Michael Brecker, Al Di Meola, Steve Khan and Peter Erskine. In addition, JAZZPAÑA reveals Vince Mendoza to be a composer and arranger of immense talent and imagination.
