Alone Together by Marvin Stamm Quartet

After a recent concert, a gentleman said, “You guys actually play like a group! You don’t just sound like four individual players – you really play together!” This is the key to what we – Bill, Rufus, Ed, and I – do. It is what makes this quartet so special.

The four of us have known each other, played and taught together over many years. We are close friends and enjoy touring and “hanging” together. When we perform, no matter the circumstances, we come to play! This is the joy of what we do.

Over his career, Marvin Stamm has been praised for both the art and the craft of trumpet playing. Leonard Feather stated that Stamm is an accomplished performer whose technical skill is used as a means to stimulating original ends.
Jazz Review states, “It is a pleasure listening to the work of Marvin Stamm, anytime! Stamm is a musician's musician, performing flawlessly on the trumpet.”
