by Angelo Leonardi
Trombettista rigoroso e dalla tecnica scintillante, tra i migliori della sua generazione, Jason Palmer non gode della popolarità che merita. Una causa può essere la collocazione appartata di insegnante al Berklee College of Music e al New England Conservatory. Nello stile ricorda Clifford Brown, che ha rappresentato la sua massima influenza formativa, e ...
