The book has been translated by Hachette Antoine
The Winter in Lisbon is a soundtrack album for the European film of the same name directed by José A.
Zorrilla composed and performed by trumpeter Dizzy Gillespie in 1990 and released on the Milan label.
The album represents the final studio recordings by the trumpet legend.
When jazz pianist Santiago Biralbo meets the wife of an American art dealer, he begins not only an obsessional love affair, but also an odyssey that will strip him of his identity in his quest to understand love and music.
Dizzy Gillespie’s brilliant music sets the tone for this sizzling ballet celebrating four decades of his work. Choreographed in 1992 by Billy Wilson, The Winter in Lisbon pays tribute to Mr. Gillespie as the consummate jazz musician, evoking an atmosphere in which the dancers challenge, tease, and pursue romance against a backdrop of rhythm and color.
“A joyful dance that gives an emotional lift” raved the Associated Press.
It’s “an onstage party with rhythm, color, and surprises,” raved The New York Times.
