Fransisco De La Garza

Jun 8

Francisco de la Garza is a tenor saxophonist and composer based in Brooklyn, NY. After years of studying the jazz tradition at the Idyllwild Arts Academy and at the New School of Jazz and Contemporary Music, he has shifted away from traditional music idioms, and has started to develop his own conceptual approach towards music, more specifically improvising. This approach allows every aspect of life to affect and resonate the music. Diverting from traditional music has opened a pathway to more honest and true artistic expression of self, and has enabled a deeper connection to sound, the saxophone, and physical space.
