Jeff Rupert Quartet: Jazz Ensemble in New York

About Jeff Rupert Quartet

The Jeff Rupert Quartet is a straight-ahead jazz group led by American saxophonist Jeff Rupert, a longtime faculty member at the University of Central Florida. In New York City, the quartet has appeared at The Django, bringing a repertory that often draws from modern jazz and vocal-jazz lineages. Rupert’s background as an educator shows in the band’s pacing and attention to tone and phrasing. The performances tend to favor clarity over display, with the horn leading a conversational ensemble sound.
