Indomitable New York alto sax hero, Greg Abate, makes his long-awaited return, bringing with him the authentic spirit of bebop in its purest form. A revered figure in the jazz world, Abate has earned a reputation as one of the most skilled and dedicated interpreters of bebop, keeping the high-octane, intricate style alive and thriving. His playing is a masterclass in bebop’s core elements—lightning-fast improvisations, complex harmonies, and melodic ingenuity—channeling the legacy of greats like Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie, while adding his own distinctive voice to the tradition.
