Jazz at Lincoln Center Saxophonist Returns with a Roar and a Whisper
Jazz at Lincoln Center alto saxophonist and Eastman School of Music alumna Alexa Tarantino returns to the festival with her own quartet. I profiled her on Rochester Overture, so read about the show, and then get in line early for what will certainly be two packed sets at Kilbourn Hall.
