Search - Ralph Alessi :: Cognitive Dissonance

For Ralph Alessi this is a debut in grand style on the CAM Jazz catalog. The New York trumpet player takes a decisive step forward in "Cognitive Dissonance". Alessi's trumpet strikes from the first moment you hear it: a clear instrumental voice, unique, made even more extraordinary by a vocabulary full of subtleties. He moves with great ease both on the chords as well as on the open forms. The incomparable drumming of Nasheet Waits, the lyrical piano of Jason Moran and the solid Drew Gress on bass complete a magnificent quartet.
