About This Movie

Chet Baker Live at Ronnie Scott's is a fascinating glimpse into the world of jazz through the lens of one of its most distinctive trumpeters.

His interaction with Michel Grailler on piano and Riccardo del Fra on bass creates this nuanced soundscape that's both haunting and uplifting. The pacing is relaxed, allowing each note to linger in the air, almost like a conversation.
