Al Belletto
An Introduction To The Al Belletto Quintet
Single US 1955 on Capitol Records label
Jazz (Post-Bop, Swing)
KENTON PRESENTS JAZZ The Al Belletto Quintet represents what's best and most exciting in modern jazz - not just because its members are talented, but because they've learned their music so well and know how to use their abilities so creatively. Three of the five perform skillfully on more than one instrument; four of the five compose and orchestrate; five of the five sing well. Most important, they're not simply individual talents; for several years they've played and worked together till, in their ensemble, they speak as one voice with a seemingly infinite variety of colors and shadings. This is the new jazz, and this is a group of its most refreshing purveyors. - Stan Kenton Recorded in Chicago, December, 1954
