All About Jazz: My interview with saxophonist Don Braden

Posted 22 January, 2007 in All About Jazz Articles, Jazz, Music

Don Braden went to Harvard in 1981 to become a computer programmer and emerged as a new voice on the saxophone. For two decades he’s been making a name for himself in the modern jazz world, and he’s compiled an impressive resume, working with established masters like trumpeter Freddie Hubbard, vocalist Betty Carter, drummers Roy Haynes and Tony Williams; then-emerging-talents like trumpter Wynton Marsalis and the Harper Brothers; and as a leader and composer in his own right.

Braden’s new album, Workin’ (HighNote, 2006) is a showcase not only for his playing skills, but also for his talents as an audio engineer. Visit All About Jazz to read my interview with Don Braden.

All About Jazz Just released their list of the best AAJ interviews of 2006. The list is immediately suspect, of course, because two of the interviews they list are by me. Check out those two interviews — with Kenny Garrett and Joel Harrison, and then read the other fine selections, too. Thanks, AAJ!
