David Liebman - Sax (Soprano), Flute (Wood), Sax (Tenor)
Here's Dave Liebman with his saxophones and a wooden flute in his very first concert of unaccompanied solos. It didn't happen until his fourth decade as a working jazz artist, even though he had recorded four solo albums down through the years. Once again we hear his brilliant sound and technique, and there are his devotion to spontaneity combined with his high instinct to shape improvisations. What Liebman offers most of all is a personal quality of adventure, the result of his endless musical curiosity. This music has so much vitality.

Although Dave Liebman had recorded a few unaccompanied saxophone records before, The Distance Runner was his first live CD in that format. Switching between soprano, tenor, and wooden flute, Liebman is mostly heard in a thoughtful and lyrical mood, improvising on his open originals and creating respectful versions of Sidney Bechet's "Petite Fleur" and John Coltrane's "Peace on Earth." His playing is logical and, although there are intense and passionate moments, the music is often melodic. Although one would not often recommend unaccompanied saxophone recitals to casual listeners, Dave Liebman's outing is surprisingly accessible and well worth exploring. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide
David Liebman
Active Decades: '60s, '70s, '80s, '90s and '00s
Born: Sep 04, 1946 in New York, NY
Genre: Jazz
Styles: Modern Creative, Progressive Jazz
Dave Liebman has developed through time to become one of the top soprano saxophonists in jazz. A highly individual and explorative (yet versatile) improviser who can stretch from bop to free, Liebman studied early on with Lennie Tristano and Charles Lloyd. He gained important experience playing with Ten Wheel Drive (1970), Elvin Jones (1971-1973), and Miles Davis' fusion group (1973-1974). Liebman formed Lookout Farm in 1974, the first of several groups (including Quest in the 1980s) that teamed his reeds with pianist Richie Beirach. By the late '80s, he had largely dropped the tenor to concentrate on soprano and occasionally flute, although he made a rare recording on tenor for Double-Time in 1995. Dave Liebman, who is very active in jazz education and has written several books, has recorded for a countless number of labels through the years as a leader, including PM, ECM, Horizon, Timeless, Palo Alto, Impulse, Soul Note, Heads Up, Storyville, Owl, CMP, Red, and Candid.
