About Steve Lehman
Artist Biography
Saxophonist, composer, educator, and bandleader Steve Lehman is a forward-thinking musician with a voracious appetite for a rigorously individual, culturally expansive conception of jazz. 2001's free-leaning Structural Fire won positive critical notice and included incendiary trumpeter Roy Campbell, Jr. in its lineup. 2005's Demian as Posthuman balanced groove-oriented compositions and electroacoustic work. 2009's Travail, Transformation & Flow was the first fully realized exploration of spectral harmony in jazz. 2014's Mise en Abîme incorporated live electronics and a custom-built vibraphone. Its contents included three radically re-imagined Bud Powell compositions. On 2017's Sélébéyone, Lehman drew inspiration from jazz, Senegalese rap, underground hip-hop, and live electronics, in an utterly unique expression of urban experimentalism. A slightly smaller version of Sélébéyone issued Xaybu: The Unseen in 2022. In addition, Lehman's modernist chamber music is performed regularly by contemporary classical ensembles around the world.
