  • Description

    On this second leader album for SteepleChase pianist/composer/educator Joel Weiskopf reunites his working band from the '80s, saxophonist Rob Scheps, bassist Joe Fitzgerald and drummer Marcello Pellitteri.

    His "old band" sounds even greater here exploring the repertoire consisting mostly of Weiskopf's newer challenging compositions.

    "A deeply personal musical statement." - Brian Zimmerman, DownBeat **** (on 'Where Angels Fear To Tread' SCCD31813)

    "Where Angeles Fear To Tread is highly recommended for the excellence of Weiskopf's writing, smart ensemble work, and three first-rate soloists." - David A Othmann

    Personnel: Joel Weiskopf (piano), Rob Scheps (tenor & soprano saxophone), Joe Fitzgerald (bass), Marcello Pellitteri (drums)
