Alaadeen At The American Jazz Museum

Legendary modern jazz saxophonist and composer, Alaadeen will be presented at the American Jazz Museum in the Blue Room with his ensemble on Saturday, September 10th. Over a professional career that now spans more than 5 decades, Alaadeen has remained on the creative path of continual development of his artistry. He is one of the few active performers today, who was actually alive and performing during the golden era of modern jazz that is often so celebrated by younger artists today. He is indeed one of the roots among those in the modern jazz tree, but his work is not locked into past eras of the music.

Alaadeen & Group 21 will perform music from his much-anticipated and critically acclaimed new release, “New Africa Suite” ('ASR Records - ASR3001), which is now available at retailers worldwide and distributed internationally. Renowned international jazz artist, Bobby Watson calls this release “Alaadeen's most important to date...” and jazz reviewer, Marc Meyers of All About Jazz states: “Alaadeen deserves much wider recogniton. New Africa Suite is highly recommended...”
