Julian Lee Quartet

Julian Lee is quickly establishing himself as one of the most sought after and versatile saxophonists of his generation. He is the recipient of the 2017 Lincoln Center Emerging Artist Award from Jazz At Lincoln Center, and has performed both internationally and nationally with a wide array of critically acclaimed artists, including Wynton Marsalis, Christian McBride, Herlin Riley, The Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra, and Jon Batiste.

Julian hosted the late night jam session at Dizzy’s Club in Jazz at Lincoln Center from 2015 until 2019, playing with countless of the finest musicians on the New York scene. In addition to headlining his own projects at Dizzy’s, he has played at the Blue Note, Jazz Standard, Birdland, Le Duc Des Lombards, Newport Jazz Festival, and Monterey Jazz Festival.

Julian is a regular section member with the JLCO (Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra), having played over 80 shows with the band since 2015. Julian has also performed with the Christian McBride Big Band, Mingus Big Band, and the Dizzy Gillespie All-Star Big Band. Julian is also a member of Isaiah J. Thompson’s quartet, which appeared on NPR’s “Tiny Desk” series.

Julian comes from a family of musicians; his parents, siblings, grandparents, and cousins are all professional musicians. Julian completed his undergraduate studies at the Juilliard School, where he had the honor of studying with master saxophonists Joe Temperley, Ron Blake, and Ted Nash. You can hear Julian on his debut release, Clementine.
