    • Viva Caruso is one of Joe Lovano's "most ambitious and enjoyable recordings". Inspired by the legendary Italian tenor, Enrico Caruso, Lovano deftly, yet directly, applies orchestral melodies and figures in different manners to create a beautifully meditative collection of music. The album contains a variety of songs, each of which focuses on a distinctive jazz interpretation of classical music.
