Russ Peterson

Russ Peterson is truly one of the most gifted instrumentalists recording today—Make that multi-instrumantalists! He represents a very exclusive fraternity of musicians who are equally at home on verious woodwinds and multiple brass intstruments, not to mention electric and acoustic bass!

On his various Swallowtail recordings you can hear his lyrical and spirited voice on trombone, trumpet, fluegelhorn, flute, clarinet, and alto, tenor, and baritone saxophones. The talent required for proficiency on such a range of instruments is a rare gift.
