Jeremy Pelt: Identity

Read "Identity" reviewed by Jim Santella


A prolific composer, Jeremy Pelt wrote all the pieces for Identity, his fourth album as a leader. His bright trumpet tone and mellow flugelhorn ambience give the session a highly lyrical quality. The quartet drives with a straight-ahead jazz sensibility that emphasizes spirit over technique. That's not to imply Pelt's anything but a superb ...

Jeremy Pelt at Dizzy's

Read "Jeremy Pelt at Dizzy's" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan


Trumpeter Jeremy Pelt could have been forgiven if he and his crack quartet had turned in a ho-hum performance Monday, January 12, at Dizzy's in downtown San Diego.

Jeremy Pelt: Profile

Read "Profile" reviewed by Jim Santella


His original compositions flow from jazz's straight-ahead tradition. His sextet is keeping the flame alive through solid teamwork and gentle exploration. Their blend treats each instrumental voice equally, but highlights the drummer just a little more than the others. And why not? Ralph Peterson does a superb job of knitting them into one well-composed unit.
