Charles Lloyd New Quartet

Concerts by legendary jazz saxophonist Charles Lloyd are events of pristine beauty.  For his latest tour, Lloyd draws inspiration from Mirror, his 2010 release, and delivers a set of richly textured originals, standards (“I Fall in Love Too Easily”) and gospel tunes (“Go Down Moses”).  His music is intense, mesmerizing and from the heart—reflecting decades-long spiritual exploration. For more than 50 years, Lloyd has created powerful music with jazz and world-beat luminaries such as Keith Jarrett, Herbie Hancock and master Indian percussionist Zakir Hussain. With The New Quartet, Lloyd has assembled a group able to follow his excursions into the music and into the mystic.
