Dexter Payne Quintet has nurtured and evolved a sound unparalleled in North America, confirmed by a four star review in DownBeat Magazine. In the studio, on a concert stage, festival or club, DPQ lightheartedly delivers serious musical quality without pretense or artifice. The musical chemistry is evidenced in their two disc, as it is in performance. The ensemble has broad appeal – to normal humans, appreciators of good vibes and high energy, but also to serious listeners. Devotees of Brazilian musical tradition cannot resist the temptation to get up and dance. The Quintet plays Brazilian choro jazz, a tradition with roots in the 19th century, which inspired and influenced the birth of samba and bossa nova. Still very much alive in Brasil today, choro has a creative and evolving northern outpost in DPQ.
