Don Byron with Michael Occhipinti Quartet
Don Byron with Michael Occhipinti
Quartet (From New
York)
“Byron has carpentered an
extraordinary career precisely by obliterating the very idea of category.” TIME
Magazine
For almost two decades, Don Byron has
been a singular voice in an astounding range of musical contexts, exploring
widely divergent traditions while continually striving for what he calls
"a sound above genre." As clarinetist, saxophonist, composer,
arranger, and social critic, he redefines every genre of music he plays, be it
classical, salsa, hip-hop, funk, rhythm & blues, klezmer, or any jazz style
from swing and bop to cutting-edge downtown improvisation.
Personnel: Don Byron (Sax),
Michael Occhipinti (Guitar), Roberto Occhipinti (Bass) & Barry Romberg
(Drums).
