Classical saxophonist Joseph Lulloff, a critically acclaimed concert artist and award-winning educator, and pianist Yu-Lien The, his frequent recital collaborator, offer world premiere recordings of works by four prominent, living American composers on New Stories, available March 17, 2023 (Blue Griffin Recording BGR 607).The Michigan-based duo opens the album with the title work, Dorothy Chang’s New Stories for Alto Saxophone and Piano, followed by David Biedenbender’s Detroit Steel for solo alto saxophone, Stacy Garrop’s Wrath for tenor saxophone and piano, and Carter Pann’s Sonata for Alto Saxophone and Piano.
Three of the works were written expressly for Lulloff, whom the Cleveland Plain Dealer has called “amazing” and The New York Times hailed as a soloist of “considerable virtuosity.” Garrop’s piece was commissioned by Lulloff as part of a consortium of saxophonists.
