OLYMPIANS – the Grammy Award-winning composer’s new album highlights the nine original compositions Mendoza wrote during his 27-year collaboration with the Metropole Orchestra. Special guest appearances include Dianne Reeves, who sings Mendoza’s lively and Brazilian-tinged song Esperanto with lyrics by Kurt Elling, and House of Reflections, interpreted by Cecile Mclorin-Salvant, with lyrics by legendary British singer/songwriter Norma Winstone. Tenor saxophonist Chris Potter is featured on an energetic version of Barcelona. The recording also features an impressive solo by saxophonist David Binney and more great moments from Weather Report alumnus Alex Acuña on drums. The premiere of Mendoza’s Bright Lights and Jubiliations was recorded live in Amsterdam in 2021, Mendoza’s first performance in Amsterdam since Pandemic.
