Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series with J Brooklyn-based *Jazz Saxophonist, Composer & Educator *Alex LoRe .. We caught up with him to discuss his new 2024 CD Motivity and quite a life he has lived in the music. This album serves as a tribute to his late mentor Lee Konitz and one of his albums that had a tremendous impact on him in Motion. The trio features bassist Thomas Morgan and drummer Johnathan Blake with special guests Ben Street on bass and Andrew Cyrille on drums. These days, he is one of the most in-demand alto saxophonists and composers on the New York music scene. With a strong upbringing in classical music and mentored by such masters as George Garzone and Bunky Green, his playing and compositions reflect a myriad of influences ranging from the European classical repertoire through today’s most influential artists on both the jazz and popular music scenes. Dig this story.
