Trumpeter Jim Rotondi was a revered post-bop musician with a warm tone and a daring improvisational approach deeply steeped in the tradition of great jazz trumpeters. He emerged on the New York scene in the 1990s, releasing a plethora of highly engaging small-group albums, including Jim's Bop, Destination Up, and 1000 Rainbows. He was also a longtime member of the jazz supergroup One for All with Eric Alexander. In the early 2000s, he moved to Europe, living in France and teaching at the University of Music and Dramatic Arts in Austria. It was there that he recorded 2024's big-band and orchestra album Finesse, with conductor/arranger Jakob Helling, which was released just four months before his passing.
