Dave Liebman Group

Saxophonist Dave Liebman, a 2010 "NEA Jazz Master," learned directly from jazz icons, spending extensive periods as a member of groups led by Miles Davis and Elvin Jones. As a leader, Liebman has been associated since 1970 with a succession of extraordinary groups from Open Sky Trio to Lookout Farm to Quest, each of whom has framed a distinct phase of his musical evolution. A 2011 Downbeat and Jazz Times Magazine Critic's Poll Winner for Soprano Saxophone, Liebman makes an exciting return with his longtime group to Birdland.
