Dominick Farinacci - Short Stories (2016)

With trumpeter Dominick Farinacci, bassist Jonathan Michel, drummer Jerome Jennings, pianist Adam Birnbaum, percussionist Mathias Kunzli, accordianist Gil Goldstein, violinists Joyce Hammann and Louise Schulman, and cellist Alexandra Jones.

When Quincy Jones first saw Dominick Farinacci perform, he famously said: “This kid is 360 degrees!” Every aspect of his talent has received its due praise - from his succinct, melodic phrasing, to his highly expressive tone and strong chops. Though best known for (and most interested in) beautiful, patient melodies at times reminiscent of late ‘50s - early ‘60s Miles Davis, Farinacci also knows how to swing fast, rip through the blues, or branch out with aspects of Latin percussion. This young trumpet star now releases his tenth album, Short Stories, his debut record with the famed Mack Avenue label, produced by four-time Grammy Award-winning legend Tommy LiPuma. Join us for the official album release party!
