David Leon: Bird's Eye
October 17th, 2021
Bird’s Eye is the latest project from saxophonist and composer David Leon with Doyeon Kim on gayageum and Lesley Mok on drumset & percussion. Inspired by the folkloric musics of Cuba and Korea, the compositions weave rigorous ensemble writing and guided improvisation to investigate collectivity. As a recipient of New Music USA’s 2021 Creator Development Fund, Bird’s Eye will workshop new compositions during a series of residencies to be completed by year’s end.
