Description of Richard Stanmeyer Quintet:
The Richard Stanmeyer Quintet is based in Boston, MA. Fronted by local trumpet player Richard Stanmeyer, the group pays homage to the Great American Songbook while pushing boundaries in music through their original compositions and arrangements. Members of this group have performed at Newport Jazz Festival, Symphony Hall, House of Blues Boston, Berklee College of Music, and Jordan Hall at the New England Conservatory. Together the Richard Stanmeyer Quintet strives to create change, enlighten, and discover truths — and express those findings in the music they perform.
