A former member of Charlie Hade's Music Liberation Orchestra and the Carla Bley Band, Slagle currently holds the first alto sax chair in the Charles Mingus Big Band and tours with the afore mentioned quartet.
"In a sparse setting Slage's a compelling soloist, brimming with melodic thoughts and clear rhythmic concepts." - John Corbett, Chicago Reader
On this CD Slage tackles eight tunes penned by Thelonious Monk and inclueds on original - appropriately entitled "Monk" in tribute to one of jazz's greatest composers. |
