Gaspare Pasini - Pepper Legacy: Complete Recordings / 2CD set

Art Pepper believed that jazz was a passion. Technique and ability in improvisation are important, of course, as well as wit, swing and beauty, but it was in the passionate expression of emotions, joy, pain, anger, frustration, bliss and desire that his music found its echo in the hearts of his listeners. Gaspare’s creation, the Art Pepper Legacy, is the daughter of his passion for music that he feels so deeply that he has invested all of himself in advancing Art’s emotional legacy. The feeling and beauty are there and he brings you the most important thing of all: his love. ~ Laurie Pepper
