Ho un legame speciale con il Blue Note – dichiara Gianluca Pellerito – il Blue Note e' un posto magico, ho esordito al Blue Note di Milano a 14 anni – ed essere oggi nella sua sede storica di New York e' per me un sogno.

Dice di lui, Peter Erskine, il suo scopritore: "La prima volta che ho sentito suonare Gianluca Pellerito è stato con l'Orchestra Jazz Siciliana durante il progetto Kenton. Mi ha fatto subito pensare a me quando ero piccolo. È un ragazzino che ha molto talento. Salire sul palco con lui è già stato e sarà ancora un onore per me". 

Dice di lui Alex Acuña: "Penso che Gianluca sia un grande musicista e penso anche di poter imparare molto da lui. Non vedo l'ora di condividere il palco con lui, e con Peter naturalmente".
