Curtis Macdonald
Alto Saxophone, Composition
Greenwood Heights
“…a fearless artist who is willing to break free of the shackles of expectations.”
- All About Jazz
Curtis Macdonald is an alto saxophonist and composer. He graduated cum laude from the New School University in 2007 where he immediately became faculty. Recently he released his latest record, Community Immunity on Greenleaf Music.
Curtis draws inspiration from a variety of influences. He remains allured by the emotive sounds of saxophonists past and draws a new melodic virtuosity based not only on traditional approaches, but also other transcendental and philosophical models. His versatility incorporates listening with the ears of a sound designer, playing the saxophone to capture a sense of fluidity, and composing to tickle the mind, all without losing a sense of unity.
