The Rich Willey Quintet Gone With The Piggies

Rich displays originality, humor and a broad expanse of emotional depth in his writing and playing. CAP is proud to present upcoming artists among whom Rich is a fast contender. Kick back and enjoy his swinging new release as all of us have.
“Rich Willey is a young and inspired trumpeter/composer who is headed for high recognition in a world that is hungry for such ambition.”
— AL TRAINER
“Rich Willey has been studying Jazz Composition with me for the past year and I feel I’ve gotten to know him pretty well. I really enjoyed the charts he did for this CD, his original Eyes All For You, based on the changes to Body and Soul and done as a waltz, Gone With the Wind and even Melancholy Baby! I think you will enjoy this CD.”
