Hailing from the streets of Naarm/Melbourne, Marley Del Prete is an improvising trumpeter who explores
the intersection between spiritual and intensely free jazz. Taking cues from the works of Don Cherry, Pharoah Sanders and Alice Coltrane, Marley delivers a fresh take on the time-honoured genre. 2023 saw the release of Marley’s debut album Movement which received great reception for its innovative approach to spiritual jazz. Working along-side the likes of Nat Birchall and Nikodimos, Marley is forging his own unique sound in the Melbourne jazz scene.
Listen back to Eternal Rhythm with Shio on Thursday May 9 to hear Marley Del Prete perform an exclusive Studio 5 Live set.
PBS thanks the Helen Macpherson Smith Trust for funding assistance to build and fit out Studio 5.
