David Murray

Born:

Few musicians in jazz history have proven more vigorously productive and resourceful than David Murray. During the past 35 years, from the moment he first visited New York as a 20 year-old student, playing in a walkup loft, in 1975, David has careened forward in a cool, collected, rocket-fueled streak. He has released over 150 albums under his own name. Yet more impressive than the numbers is the constancy of two abiding achievements: as a tenor saxophonist, he has perfected an instantly recognizable approach to improvisation that even in its freest flights acknowledges the gravity of a tradition he honors more than most; and he has altered the context for his improvisations as an infinite mosaic of musical challenges and explorations

Dikeman / Hong / Lumley / Warelis: Old Adam On Turtle Island

Read "Old Adam On Turtle Island" reviewed by Mark Corroto


The creative community centered in Amsterdam, Netherlands, can be seen as the modern-day equivalent of a city once known as New Amsterdam--a 17th-century Dutch settlement that would eventually become New York City. Just as modern jazz flourished in mid-20th-century New York, some might argue that today's hotbed of creative music resides in old Amsterdam. Evidence for ...

Ten Terrific Sax Plus Organ Combinations

Read "Ten Terrific Sax Plus Organ Combinations" reviewed by Artur Moral

Whether it be a tenor with a Hammond, a soprano with an ...
