About this product
Paul Dietrich's fifth album as a leader, 'A Small Patch of Earth,' marks a shift from his recent large-ensemble projects (2019's 'Forward,' an 18-piece big band, and 2023's '5+4,' for a nine-piece group) to a more intimate and folk-inspired sound. Emphasizing simplicity, interaction, and improvisation, the album draws inspiration from nature and was recorded in the open space of a concert hall, inviting listeners to pause and take a deep breath.

Trumpeter Paul Dietrich's 5+4 arose from the composer's desire to explore the possibilities of the string quartet within the context of modern jazz. With this group, Dietrich, who also leads both a jazz quintet and a big band, found a solid middle ground between large ensemble compositional approach and small group sensibilities. The result is a record that feels large in scale yet intimate in it's improvisational landscape.

Classic 1956 session, generally regarded as Art Pepper's first recording after being released from Federal prison for drug possession. Fearing the stigma, Tampa Records decided to it under Marty Paich's leadership. Today, this is one of the most highly regarded Art Pepper recordings. A must for all appreciators of great jazz.
