Stan Slotter has been active on the Philadelphia music scene for many years. Trained as a classical player both on trumpet and on flute, Stan decided early in his career that if he was going to be a professional freelancer and play music for a living, the best way to accomplish this was to try to achieve the greatest possible level of versatility. Throughout the years he has successfully performed many different styles of music on a professional level including Jazz, traditional and modern, Salsa and other Latin forms, Big Band music, Klezmer and Middle eastern styles just to name a few. The unusual flute/trumpet double has also contributed to Stan’s success as a freelancer. Stan has an energetic and heartfelt approach to the trumpet and flute that lends warmth and style to his music.

 

Bob Butryn has a Bachelor of Music Education from Temple University.  He plays clarinet, sax and flute and performs with numerous classical, jazz and rock ensembles in the Philadelphia area.  Most of Bob’s work is done as “one and done” events: weddings, corporate parties and celebrations of any kind.  Bob is also a professional partner dancer (swing, salsa, etc).  He performs duo dance shows under the name “Crazy Rhythm, Fancy Feet”.  He is currently working on an original musical comedy.

 

Dave Posmontier has been playing keyboard since the age of seven and has played professionally for the past 50  years.   In 1980, Dave, his brother Rich, and drummer, Tom Cohen, formed the Posmontier Brothers Quintet and performed extensively at concerts and clubs and made radio and television appearances in the Philadelphia area. The group produced an album, "PBQ'" of Dave's original music in 1985. 

 Dave has performed and recorded with many jazz artists including Christian McBride, James Moody, Chris Potter, Duane Eubanks, Mickey  Roker, Bobbie Durham, John Blake, John Swana, Mike Richmond, Bootsie Barnes, Tony Williams (sax), Bob Howell, Chico Huff, Larry McKenna, Steve Giordano, Grover Washington Jr., David "Fathead" Newman, and  Johnny Hartman.   He has also been playing traditional and innovative klezmer music with a band called, “Klingon Klezmer.” They have performed in a number of major concert halls throughout Germany and have released two CDs.

 Currently, Dave is playing, composing, arranging, teaching, and participating in educational jazz concerts, workshops and clinics in schools throughout the area.    Dave can be heard on several CD’s of Philadelphia area jazz artists and in 2010,  released a CD, "Posterity" featuring his original compositions and arrangements.  

He has recently released a live acoustic trio CD, "Deep Pockets".
