Biography

Praised by The New York Times as a saxophonist who is “...making the connections among about 70 years’ worth of contemplative, articulate and light–toned players,” Alex LoRe is an active alto saxophonist and composer on the New York music scene. Mentored by such masters as Lee Konitz, George Garzone, and Bunky Green, LoRe’s playing and compositions reflect a myriad of influences ranging from the contemporary classical repertoire through today’s most influential artists on both the jazz and popular music scenes. He has performed alongside the likes of Dave Liebman, Melissa Aldana, Dayna Stephens, Aaron Parks, Matt Mitchell, Marta Sanchez, Ingrid Jensen, Ron Blake, and Ari Hoenig, among others. Internationally, he has performed throughout the Middle East, Europe, Australia, and Canada. In May of 2023 LoRe will release his fourth album on Whirlwind Recordings. His quartet features some of the most in-demand musicians of his generation: pianist Glenn Zaleski, bassist Desmond White, and drummer Allan Mednard. LoRe’s previous three albums— Dream House (2014) and More Figs and Blue Things (2016) on saxophonist Greg Osby’s label, Inner Circle Music, and Karol (2019) on Challenge Records International have received critical acclaim by The New York Times, Downbeat Magazine, and Jazz Wise Magazine (UK), among others. All About Jazz states, “with Karol, [LoRe] continues to carve out a unique space in the pantheon of present-day saxophonists and composers.”
