ERIC ALEXANDER
Eric Alexander is one of the most sought-after saxophonists on the modern jazz scene. “The people I listened to in college are still the cats that are influencing me today,” says Alexander. “Monk, Dizzy, Sonny Stitt, Clifford Brown, Sonny Rollins, Jackie McLean, Joe Henderson – the legacy left by Bird and all the bebop pioneers, that language and that feel, that’s the bread and butter of everything I do.” Don’t miss this musical master as he returns to our stage!
