Jazz Meets the Symphony is an album by Argentine-American composer, pianist and conductor Lalo Schifrin with bassist Ray Brown, drummer Grady Tate and the London Philharmonic Orchestra recorded in 1992 and released on the Atlantic label in 1993.

[1] Schifrin's musical arrangement for the track, "Dizzy Gillespie Fireworks" was nominated for the 1994 Grammy Award for Best Arrangement on an Instrumental.

[2] The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow stated, "...Most intriguing among Schifrin's arrangements are Echoes of Duke Ellington and Dizzy Gillespie Fireworks, which are really medleys of Duke's and Dizzy's songs.

Not all of the shorter pieces... are too essential, and, on the whole, Schifrin's follow-up project (More Jazz Meets the Symphony) would result in a stronger record.

He gave the album a four star rating, which is generally reserved for releases of high merit.
