Saxophone Summit: Joe Lovano, Dave Liebman & Greg Osby

Saxophonist Joe Lovano, hailed as “one of the most creative saxophonists going” by The Boston Globe, combines eclectic taste in conceptual projects with his own reliably distinctive state of the art jazz improvisation. David Liebman, who has been called “one of the most important saxophonists in contemporary music... a leader and artist of integrity and independent direction." by Downbeat Magazine, states that, "late Coltrane" [has been] "largely under appreciated and unexplored. In his final years, Coltrane's music included amazingly beautiful, lyrical melodies offset by intense, abstract and dissonant free group improvisation."  Saxophone "battles" have traditionally inspired musicians to raise their game. But this group is more than just a cutting contest. It has become a multi-faceted musical equation greater than the sum of its parts.
