Since moving to New York in 2001, Frank Basile has been one of today’s most in-demand baritone saxophonists, performing or recording with the Vanguard Jazz Orchestra, Dizzy Gillespie All-Star Band, and the Jimmy Heath Big Band, among many others.

At 3 p.m. Oct. 17 he will focus on the six baritone saxophonists who have had the greatest influence on his playing. The presentation will be livestreamed as part of the Jazz Education series jointly sponsored by the Metuchen Arts Council-Jazz and the New Jersey Jazz Society

 

The six saxophonists are: Harry Carney, an integral part of Duke Ellington’s band; Leo Parker, the first baritone saxophonist to incorporate the new sounds of bebop into his playing; Cecil Payne, another of the first exponents of bebop on the baritone saxophone; Pepper Adams, whose playing was characterized by an adventurous sense of harmony, an assertive tone, and a witty sense of humor; Ronnie Cuber, who synthesized the influence of Adams along with that of great tenor players such as Hank Mobley and John Coltrane into a very personal and engaging style; and Gary Smulyan, who switched from alto saxophone to baritone when he joined Woody Herman’s band and who was the winner of JazzTimes’ 2020 Readers’ Poll as the No. 1 current baritone player.

Gerry Mulligan, absent from this presentation, was the subject of July’s Jazz Education presentation, still available on the NJJS YouTube channel.

The presentation will be available live and archived on the njjs.org website as well as on the NJJS Facebook page and YouTube channel.
