TOM HARRELL QUINTET

‘What Harrell does is spin out improvisational lines filled with instant melodies. Like a lyricist who illuminates phrases with subtle internal rhymes, Harrell’s soloing captivates both the hearts and the minds of his listeners’, wrote The Los Angeles Times. Tom Harrell is not just a convincing and self confident swinger (ever since his early years with Stan Kenton, Woody Herman and Horace Silver) but also the most emotionally touching trumpet player since Chet Baker.
