NYC Jazz Clarinetist & Saxophonist Ken Thomson

Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series with Brooklyn-based clarinetist, saxophonist, and composer Ken Thomson .. He put together a new band for his latest project called Sextet on New Focus Recordings' .. He is a staple within NYC’s contemporary music and jazz communities and is widely regarded for his ability to blend a rich variety of influences and styles into his own musical language while maintaining a voice unmistakably his own. Guided by a desire to create music in which composition and improvisation are equally important and codependent, this project is the latest in a series of recordings the composer has made unifying these traditions.
