    Praised as 'an inventive musician' (The New York Times) and a 'sharp new music saxophonist' (Time Out New York), Brian Sacawa has firmly established himself as an important contemporary voice for his instrument. Active internationally as a soloist, recitalist, and chamber musician, his versatile career has led to appearances ranging from the concert stage to club settings as well as the premieres of over 50 new works by both established and emerging composers. Mr. Sacawa's critically acclaimed, Grammy-winning recordings can be heard on the Naxos, Innova, Equilibrium, and BiBimBop record labels. He holds degrees from the University of Michigan, the Peabody Conservatory, and the University of Massachusetts--Amherst, where he studied with Donald Sinta, Gary Louie, and Lynn Klock. He is the co-founder of the new music duo Hybrid Groove Project, with composer/turntablist DJ Dubble8, co-curator of Mobtown Modern, and the author of the blog Sounds Like Now. Mr. Sacawa currently resides with his assistant near Patterson Park in Baltimore, MD, where he serves as saxophonist with The U.S. Army Field Band and on the faculty of the University of Maryland Baltimore County.
