On February 20, 2018, guitarist Peter Bernstein led an exceptional quartet at the Village Vanguard, featuring pianist Sullivan Fortner, bassist Doug Weiss, and drummer Leon Parker. This performance was part of a series of engagements at the Vanguard, a venue known for its intimate setting and rich jazz history. While specific reviews of this particular set are not readily available, the collaboration between Bernstein and Fortner is noteworthy. Their musical relationship dates back to the recording of Bernstein's 2018 album "21 Jump Street," where Fortner's expressive piano work complemented Bernstein's guitar. The addition of Weiss and Parker, both seasoned musicians with extensive experience in the jazz scene, brought a dynamic rhythm section to the ensemble. This performance at the Vanguard showcased the synergy between these artists, offering a memorable evening of jazz that resonated with both the musicians and the audience.
