Dominick Farinacci Quintet April 1, 2012

28 year-old NYC-based jazz trumpeter, recipient of the International New Star Award (along with Diana Krall & Christian McBride), the Disney New Star Award, and first place honors in the Carmine Caruso Int’l. Trumpet Competition, is touring in support of his 2nd U.S. release, Dawn of Goodbye, following 7 critically acclaimed CD’s as a leader in Japan. NY critic Nate Chinen says, “Farinacci presents his gift in deep focus, retro style and ready for consumption. He plays beautifully, with expressive control, throughout a program of love-haunted standards and compatible originals. His phrasing attests to some close study of Miles Davis and Clifford Brown, but avoids outright imitation. That evident respect for jazz history is one reason his early endorsement by Wynton Marsalis.
