Consisting of some of the most talented young musicians from North America and Europe, the Ben van Gelder Quintet ushers in a new aesthetic with international allure. Rooted in the jazz tradition, this group creates music that is informed by the spirit of the time.

"The compositions are beguiling, spirited yet poised, and doused with the arid phrasing of a seasoned master." - All About Jazz (Mark F Turner)
