Written by French composer Leo Delibes in 1874, The Maids of Cadiz was mostly known as a vocal piece before arranger Gil Evans heavily reworked it for inclusion on his 1957 collaboration with trumpeter Miles Davis, "Miles Ahead." Although each piece on the album melds together as one giant suite for trumpet and jazz orchestra, the cleverness of Evans's writing allows for each movement to be easily performed on their own. This is not a transcription and has been prepared from Evans's original score. Instrumentation: Solo Flugelhorn (or Trumpet), 2 Clarinets, Alto Saxophone, Bass Clarinet, 5 Trumpets, 2 Horns in F, 3 Trombones, Bass Trombone, Tuba, Bass and Drums.
