Bobby Previte

Bobby Previte brings together some of the finest European jazz musicians in his new release, PAN ATLANTIC. (Available as a digital download only)

The “Pan Atlantic Band,” which has been touring for two years, features young stars and old masters of the continent. Gianluca Petrella, from Italy, is the rising force on the trombone. From Vienna comes Wolfgang Puschnig, the master alto saxophonist, who has lent his talents to scores of bands in his long career. On Fender Rhodes is Benoit Delbecq, the deep-thinking French pianist. The young Danish phenomenon Nils Davidsen holds down the bottom on electric bass.

In the middle of a tour last year, the musicians traveled to Italy and took four days off in Turin to cut the tracks in Petrella’s favorite studio -- a big beautiful room where the band stretched out. It was mixed in New York by the legendary Scott Harding and mastered by Scott Hull at Masterdisk.
