First, the new Jon De Lucia Group CD, first in 10 years, is out this month on Fresh Sound New Talent. The band includes longtime collaborators Greg Ruggiero, Chris Tordini and Tommy Crane and features all original compositions of mine. You can pick up a CD at my new online store, www.jondelucia.com/shop, or on iTunes, here.

This band, minus Chris Tordini, will be performing at the Drawing Room on Saturday, May 13th at 8pm, in downtown Brooklyn. You can see the Facebook event here. I will be posting tickets for sale through Eventbrite shortly to the event page.



New Book for Saxophone

My new book will come out on May 25th, and is available for pre-order now! I am very excited about this project, a book for diatonic scale patterns taken from Bach's solo works. It is a great work out for all instruments, and a wealth of material relatable to improvisation. I recently wrote a short article about the book for The Best Saxophone Website Ever.

Jon De Lucia Octet

To celebrate the release of the book, the Octet will be performing some fugue inspired material on May 29th at Sir D's Lounge in Brooklyn. See the event page here. Michael Steinman has been kind enough to record this group several times, here is a clip from our last show at Greenwich House Music.
