| Ken Peplowski Quartet at the Jazz Standard March 15-18 Ken Peplowski Quartet (Ken Peplowski - clarinet, tenor saxophone; Bill Charlap - piano; Martin Wind - bass; Joe LaBarbara - drums) will play at the Jazz Standard, NYC. A masterful melodist with an effortless sense of swing, Ken Peplowski began his professional career with the Tommy Dorsey “ghost” orchestra and played with Benny Goodman.
