David Murray Quartet – Two-Day Residency
Cafè Oto, E8 3DL , [Venue Details]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 first album of the quartet: Francesca, was released on Intakt in 2024. It made it to many best jazz albums charts of the year: Downbeat, Jazzwise etc, and ranking #2 in the New York Times.
The most recent album Birdly Serenade was released on Impulse! in April 2025. Invited by the prestigious Birdsong Project, Murray drew inspiration from the birds for the compositions on this album.
“He sounds better than he had in ages and that renaissance has proven both real and sustained.” – Peter Margasak
“This new works shows that Murray has lost none of his verve today, firmly taking his place in the elite group of musicians whose output has quality to match quantity.” – Jazzwise
