Album Notes & Community Reviews

Recorded in the Netherlands featuring Philip Catherine on guitar and Jean-Louis Rassinfosse on bass, 'Chet's Choice' captures the trumpeter during his late European resurgence. The intimate drumless trio setting highlights delicate melodic interplay and features some of the bandleader's most evocative late-career vocal deliveries.
