David Murray Quartet

Tenor saxophonist David Murray, the giant of modern jazz, fuses all the great things that black music has produced: Gospel sounds, free jazz, Afro-Caribbean, blues, soul as well as the beautiful standards of classic jazz. Murray’s colorful tone, unsurpassed intonation, sense of swing, melancholy tones, improvisational power and ingenuity make him one of the most important voices in music today.
His new quartet, which mainly plays his own compositions, gives the three young musicians plenty of space. “Jazz legend David Murray is back with the next generation of geniuses”, writes the Washington Post about the new quartet.

The most recent album Birdly Serenade was released on Impulse! in April 2025
