Mike DiRubbo
“Something about the sound Mike DiRubbo elicits from the alto saxophone – deep, dark, immense, with a machete edge that denotes a ready-for-anything urban sensibility – immediately grabs the ear. It’s a sound familiar to the cream of New York’s hardcore jazz community since the mid-‘90’s” – Ted Panken “He has his own unique sound on the saxophone…his expansive musical vocabulary exhibits a solid foundation in the bebop tradition that has been judiciously elevated through a liberal addition of post-Coltrane modality ”- Russ Musto "Something in DiRubbo’s tone, pacing and phrasing invites you to focus in and listen. It’s as if he has an internal reserve of wisdom and purpose, some burnished core of inner knowing."Browse all performers
