About

Peter Bernstein (New York, 1967) is one of the most respected jazz guitarists of his generation. Rooted in bebop but never confined by it, he has built a career as both a bandleader and a sought-after sideman - working alongside Sonny Rollins, Joshua Redman, Diana Krall and Brad Mehldau, among many others. He has taught at NYU, the New School and the Conservatorium van Amsterdam, and for over three decades has been known for his warm tone and melodically incisive improvising.
