Celebrated Young Pianist and Bandleader Brandon Goldberg’s Compelling Sophomore Release In Good Time
Featuring an All-Star Quintet including the iconic Jazz drummer Ralph Peterson (1962 – 2021) on one of his last recordings
Released September 17, 2021
Pianist, composer and bandleader Brandon Goldberg is thrilled to announce the release of his second album, In Good Time. A follow-up to 2019’s critically-acclaimed LET’S PLAY!, Goldberg approaches In Good Time with a refined, seasoned sensibility and is joined by a top-shelf quintet through five original compositions and five smartly arranged jazz standards. Showcasing Goldberg’s pianistic prowess and stunning compositional facility, the album features the 15 year old instrumentalist in a powerhouse trio with late drum giant Ralph Peterson and heralded bassist Luques Curtis, filled out by a supple horn section made up of saxophonist Stacy Dillard and trumpeter Josh Evans. Trumpeter Antoine Drye makes an appearance on the album’s closing track for a duo performance with the bandleader. In Good Time will be available on all platforms on September 17, 2021.
All About Jazz
4 out of 5 stars
Downbeat Magazine
“…unassailable technique, advanced harmonic understanding, a deep sense of swing and, most impressively, a clarity and plethora of ideas executed to near-perfection.”
London Jazz News
“…this album takes a further step: In Good Time is Goldberg’s second release, an emphatic statement to indicate that artistic development has rendered his lack of years irrelevant”
Be Bop Spoken Here
“Not only does he swing like a hardened pro but his sensitivity on a ballad whether soloing or accompanying has to be heard to be believed. His unaccompanied rendition of Someone to Watch Over me is up there with the gods. Tatum, Peterson, Garner and co may be long gone but there is no shortage of would be successors and Goldberg is surely high among them.”
