Peak Jazz Series: The Richard Baratta Gotham City Latin Jazz Quintet

A multi-talented artist, Richard Baratta’s career spans both music and film, with an impressive list of Hollywood credits, including The Wolf of Wall Street, The Irishman, Joker, and several Spider-Man films. After decades in the film industry, Baratta made a triumphant return to jazz, earning a GRAMMY nomination for his 2020 album, Music in Film: The Reel Deal, which reimagined iconic movie soundtracks in a jazz setting. His follow-ups, Music in Film: The Sequel and Off the Charts, solidified his place as a boundary-pushing bandleader and visionary musician.

The drummer-bandleader's most recent album, Looking Back, is a thrilling jazz reinterpretation of classic rock and soul hits from the 1960s and '70s. There are fresh, dynamic takes on the music of James Brown, Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, and Bob Dylan, all brought to life through the virtuosic energy of the Richard Baratta Gotham City Latin Jazz Quintet.
