Brad Linde’s tribute to Philip Glass includes performances of the composer’s works for saxophone, as well as re-imaginings of his compositions and style. Saxophonist and composer Brian Settles has established himself as a rising force with a long-term artistic vision, blending the outwardly engaging with the deeply personal, reconciling his intimate command of the jazz lineage with a commitment to his own experimental voice in tribute to Wayne Shorter.
