When Oscar winning director Alejandro González Iñárritu created “Birdman,” he recognized that the intense characters, heavy dialogue and the overall raw storyline needed to be accompanied by some compelling music.

Sanchez, also an “accomplished jazzer” best known for his collaboration with guitar legend Pat Metheny, contributed the improvised solos throughout the film.
