Quartet records with trumpet as a lead voice are rare and only the most skilled improvisers can tackle such a challenge.
In the tradition of iconic masterpieces as Lee Morgan's Candy or Kenny Dorham's Quiet Kenny, Joe Magnarelli leads a quartet with pianist Gary Versace, bassist Paul Gill, and drummer Anthony Reedus through a diverse set that includes three Monk classics.
Guitarist Peter Bernstein adds additional color on a few tracks, contributing to Magnarelli's most mature statement to date.
Joe Magnarelli - trumpet, flugehorne
