Quiet Kenny isn't just a highlight of the Prestige catalog; it is a definitive argument for Kenny Dorham's status as a titan of the trumpet. While often overshadowed by his flashier contemporaries, this 1959 session captures Dorham at the absolute peak of his powers, delivering a performance defined by understated elegance and profound emotional depth.

Supported by a rock-solid rhythm section featuring Tommy Flanagan, Paul Chambers, and Art Taylor, Dorham navigates a program that balances heartbreaking ballads with sophisticated, original blues. On standards like "My Ideal" and "Alone Together," his tone is intimate and breathy-limning each melody with a vulnerability that few could replicate. Dorham also digs deep into his own compositions, exploring the harmonic richness of "Blue Friday" and "Blue Spring Shuffle."
