The album is a collection of Fahie’s stunning arrangements of works by seven classical composers celebrating the cross-pollination of jazz and classical music.

The album features a seven part suite of music based on the poetry of famed Cuban writer José Martí set for two wonderful vocalists, Sofia Rei and Camila Meza, along with a stellar band of New York improvisers who bring Valera's vision to life.
