Ted Nash

Ted Nash is a seriously versatile and accomplished saxophonist, composer, and arranger. He's not just sticking to one genre; he's all about exploring different sounds and pushing musical boundaries. You might know him from his work with the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra, where he's been a key player for years, but he also leads his own ensembles and consistently puts out fascinating projects.

Nash's albums are a testament to his wide-ranging interests, from paying tribute to jazz legends like Herbie Nichols and Carla Bley to exploring themes of personal transformation and even re-imagining the music of West Side Story. He's got a knack for crafting intricate arrangements and creating music that's both intellectually stimulating and emotionally engaging. Whether he's leading a trio or a larger ensemble, Ted Nash always brings a fresh perspective and a deep respect for the music.
