Are they slipping something into the school lunch program these days? For whatever reason, the city is on a roll with jazz prodigies lately, headlined by drummer Justin Faulkner, who was worrying about tour dates with Branford Marsalis at the same time he was picking out a tux for the senior prom. Next in line is tenor saxophonist Dahi Divine, whose impressive credentials already include sharing the stage with the Dave Matthews Band at last year's Grammys. Now a second-semester freshman at New York's New School of Jazz & Contemporary Music, Divine returns home accompanied by 34-year-old trumpet star Jeremy Pelt, a former prodigy himself who'll seem like an elder in this company.
