Amazon.com: West Side Story's freshness and spirit have captivated audiences time and time again... For jazz musicians, West Side Story's music was hip then and is still hip now. It's timeless! Forty years after the opening of WEST SIDE STORY on Broadway, Grammy award-winning composer/arranger and pianist Dave Grusin jazzes up the themes from this timeless classic. Grusin's arrangements are performed by a top-notch big band (with strings) headlined by such instrumental and vocal greats as Arturo Sandoval, Gloria Estefan, Bill Evans, Jonathan Butler, Jon Secada, and Dave Valentin. The mainstream jazz, Latin and Afro-Cuban rhythms bring new life to this musical masterpiece in DTS 5.1 Digital Surround. 5.1 Producer: Phil Ramone 5.1 Mixed By: Frank Fillipetti
