ROY HARGROVE QUINTET
Roy Hargrove trumpet, Justin Robinson alto saxophone, Joel Holmes piano, Ameen Saleem bass, Montez Coleman drums
Roy Hargrove is one of the today’s greatest trumpet players. He finds his way in every style, from neohard bop to funk, R&B and Latin. With his generous tone and his urge for innovation he proves himself a true successor to such colleagues as Lee Morgan and Freddie Hubbard. ‘A highly gifted trumpeter whose facility and bright, sweet tone bring a sense of dancing fun to his music’ (Penguin Guide to Jazz).
