The Alexa Tarantino Quartet engages their audience through Tarantino’s original compositions and modern takes on classic standards and favorites. With a wide range of inspiration, the Quartet's repertoire remains refreshing with uplifting elements of creative improvisation and musical interaction.
Led by saxophonist and composer Alexa Tarantino, the Quartet celebrates their debut album, "Winds of Change," produced by Posi-Tone Records in May 2019. Recent New York City performances include Dizzy's Club, The Jazz Standard, and Birdland Theater. The Quartet has also played the Rockport Jazz Festival at the Shalin Liu Performance Center in Rockport, Massachusetts for the past several years. Currently, the ensemble holds a residency as Faculty Members, with Alexa Tarantino as Founder/Director, at the Rockport Jazz Workshop.
