Scandia Story

Trumpeter Kenny Dorham (1924 - 1972) played in Dizzy Gillespie’s bop big band and then joined Charlie Parker’s quintet. He was a founding member of the Jazz Messengers. Also played in Max Roach’s quintet and co-led a group with Joe Henderson. “...this is a true find...documenting Dorham in fine shape...One of best performance of Tete Montoliu...” (Swing Journal) “...The trumpeter probably could not have found a better rhythm section for his 1963 European tour...there are enough privileged moments here to make this disc a must for serious students of the jazz trumpet...” (Cadence)

The sequel to Dorham’s highly acclaimed “Short Story” SCCD 36010 “not only contains superb examples of the mature Dorham style, but affords a rare opportunity for comparison with what might have been, by placing him alongside the famous Swedish trumpeter, Rolf Ericson, who hews to the more traditional, vertical style of Bebop trumpet.” (Chris Sheridan)
