Larry Fuller is one of the premier mainstream jazz pianists living today. He was musical director and pianist for vocalist Ernestine Anderson, last pianist in legendary bassist Ray Brown’s Trio, member of drummer Jeff Hamilton’s Trio, and part of vocalist/guitarist John Pizzarelli’s Quartet. Since 2013 – harnessing his unique bandstand collaborations with the giants – Fuller has led the Larry Fuller Trio, generating hard-swinging, emotive and versatile performances. The New York Times exclaims: “he sprinkles stardust on whatever song he plays, you hold your breath in wonder.”

Of Harry Allen,  Gene Lees (BMG) writes, “Stan Getz was once asked his idea of the perfect tenor saxophone soloist. His answer was, ‘My technique, Al Cohn’s ideas, and Zoot’s time.’ The fulfillment of that ideal may well be embodied in thirty-year-old Harry Allen.”

BMG recording artist Harry Allen has over twenty recordings to his name. Three of Harry’s CDs have won Gold Disc Awards from Japan’s Swing Journal Magazine, and his CD Tenors Anyone? won both the Gold Disc Award and the New Star Award. His recordings have made the top ten list for favorite new releases in Swing Journal Magazine’s reader’s poll and Jazz Journal International’s critic’s poll for 1997, and Eu Nao Quero Dancar (I Won’t Dance), the third Gold Disc Award winner, was voted second for album of the year for 1998 by Swing Journal Magazine‘s reader‘s poll.

Harry has performed at jazz festivals and clubs worldwide, frequently touring the United States, Europe, and the Far East. He has performed with Rosemary Clooney, Ray Brown, Hank Jones, Frank Wess, Flip Phillips, Scott Hamilton, Harry ‘Sweets’ Edison, Kenny Burrell, Herb Ellis, John Pizzarelli, Bucky Pizzarelli, Gus Johnson, Jeff Hamilton, Terry Gibbs, Warren Vache, and has recorded with Tony Bennett, Johnny Mandel, Ray Brown, Tommy Flanagan, James Taylor, Sheryl Crow, Kenny Barron, Dave McKenna, Dori Caymmi, Larry Goldings, George Mraz, Jake Hanna, and Al Foster, among others.
