DAVIS, MILES - Cinema Of Miles Davis (Sealed) (CD)

The Cinema of Miles Davis showcases superior examples of the use of the great jazz trumpeter’s music in film. This edition includes his first complete score, sultry and improvised, for Elevator To the Gallows – Louis Malle’s directorial debut starring the eternal Jeanne Moreau – which came in late 1957, a decisive time for Miles; marking the ending of his hard-bop period and anticipating the modal phase that would culminate in A Kind of Blue.
