On September 9, 2022, the Peter Bernstein Quartet graced the Village Vanguard with a performance that underscored the enduring synergy between guitarist Peter Bernstein and pianist Sullivan Fortner. This collaboration was particularly notable given Fortner's recent acclaim for his 2021 album "The King of the Keys," which showcased his dynamic approach to jazz standards. The rhythm section, featuring bassist Doug Weiss and drummer Al Foster, provided a solid foundation, allowing Bernstein's expressive guitar work to shine. The setlist included a mix of Bernstein's originals and jazz classics, reflecting the quartet's deep understanding of the genre's rich history. This engagement at the Village Vanguard was part of a series of performances in September 2022, highlighting the quartet's commitment to bringing their cohesive sound to audiences in New York City and beyond.
