Saxophonist and multi-reedist Sam Sadigursky has played and recorded with artists as diverse as Ray Brown and Brad Mehldau. He performs in many top jazz and world music venues, Broadway pits and has toured the U.S., Europe, Canada, and Japan. He has also played in the Monterey, JVC, Aspen, Ravinia, and CMJ festivals and is featured on saxophone and flute on the score to the film Seeing Other People. As a composer, he has been commissioned by vocal groups, film directors, and has collaborated with modern dance choreographers in live performance of their works. He can be heard in New York with the Mingus Orchestra, Gabe Kahane, Lucia Pulido, Edmar Castaneda, Folklore Urbano, La Cumbiamba e Neye, and others. In 2007, a collection of his vocal compositions based on poetry, entitled The Words Project, was released to critical acclaim on New Amsterdam Records, hailed as “an impressive debut” by the New York Times and given a four star review in Time Out New York.
