Hometown: North Vancouver, British Columbia
For the last 22 years, the Brad Turner Quartet has been at the forefront of the Vancouver Jazz scene, and has garnered national and international attention as an ensemble of keen interactive sense, formidable improvisational skills with a strong and varied repertoire gathered over their years together as a group.
The individual members of the quartet (Brad Turner, trumpet; Bruno Hubert, piano; André Lachance, bass; Dylan van der Schyff, drums) have performed and/or recorded with such artists as Lee Konitz, Dave Douglas, John Scofield, Bill Frisell, Michael Moore, Mino Cinelu, Gary Bartz and Charles MacPherson – and as a group, in 2001 the Brad Turner Quartet performed with guest artist Joe Lovano, a concert which was recorded and broadcast nationally by the CBC.
