Michael Zilber - Originals For The Originals at California Jazz Conservatory

About

A tribute to saxophone giants, one of the Bay Area's leading saxophonists Michael Zilber performs all original music from his upcoming ORIGIN CD, Originals for the ORIGINALS, written in homage to John Coltrane, Wayne Shorter, Dave Liebman, Michael Brecker, Sonny Rollins, Paul Desmond and Joe Henderson. The recording features New York jazz greats Dave Kikoski on piano, James Genus on bass, and Clarence Penn on drums. ZIlber will be joined at The CJC by the outstanding rhythm section of pianist Matt Clark, bassist Peter Barshay and drummer Akira Tana, all three who share with Zilber a long stint as New York-based musicians.
