Fluent in the language of jazz but never bound by it, Joshua Redman is one of the most respected saxophonists of his generation. With lush improvisation and distinctive voice, Redman's performances blur the lines between thought and feeling. His new album, Words Fall Short (2025), continues his legacy of genre-defining artistry. A former Thelonious Monk Competition winner and Grammy nominee, Redman is known for pushing the genre forward while honoring its rich jazz traditions, making this performance a must-see for both serious jazz enthusiasts and new audiences alike.
