STEVE LEHMAN TRIO

Steve Lehman, ‘one of the most exciting saxophone voices on the current scene’ (The Wire), creates intricate music of an astounding accessibility and urgency. Elements of hip-hop and electronic music form building blocks for his compositions. His new trio is passionately dedicated, often sounds like a single instrument and can hardly be compared to a traditional saxophone trio. ‘Lehman, who fuses adventurous postbop with contemporary-classical harmonic approaches, is an original thinker who will be one of the transforming figures of early 21st century jazz’ (The Guardian). Lehman has a special relationship with the Bimhuis and his concerts here have received rave reviews.
