New Saxophone Class with Joe Rosenberg

Soprano saxophonist and composer Joe Rosenberg studied with the legendary Joe Viola, Buddy Collete and clarinetist John Carter and is a recipient of a 1995 Jazz Performance fellowship from the National Endowment for the Arts. Joe currently leads two quartets, Signal to Noise and JRQ, both with Masako Hamamura on piano, Peter Scherr on bass, and Edward Perraud on drums.

Signal to Noise performs Joe’s original compositions, taking advantage of structure and procedures to explore new possibilities of collective improvisation. JRQ plays jazz standards, bringing this quartet’s highly interactive and exploratory approach, while respecting the forms and tradition of the music.

In both musics, values such as sound, color, texture, space, and development are at the forefront of the work. “When everything’s working we are like fish in water, completely submerged in the music, and yet unaware that we are even in water. And hopefully we bring the listener into this world with us.”

In addition to leading his own groups Joe has performed with internationally known artists such Buddy Collette, Dewey Redman, Gary Foster, Mark Helias, and Tom Rainey.

*) the Class will start on 9 January 2012. Enroll now! Contact our Administration Staff (Dono) : +622134129011 or 085811397108 for further information.
