 "Probing the furthest frontiers of rhythm science, alto saxophonist
 Steve Lehman represents some of the most advanced compositional
 thinking in jazz today. A child of the avant-garde, he's a former
 student and bandmate of Anthony Braxton and a member of Fieldwork, the
 collaborative trio with piano visionary Vijay Iyer. Lehman's 2005
 outing Demian as Posthuman, featuring Meshell Ndegeocello, is a study
 in splintered soundscapes and mind-altering beats." -Philadelphia
 Weekly

 Named a Rising Star on the alto saxophone in 2006 and 2007 by the
 Downbeat Magazine International Critics Poll, STEVE LEHMAN is a
 saxophonist and composer whose work resides on the cutting-edge of
 contemporary music. He has been recognized as one of today's truly
 original creative voices by The Wire, The New York Times, The Village
 Voice, and by National Public Radio. A former student of both Jackie
 McLean and Anthony Braxton, he has performed and recorded throughout
 the United States and Europe with his own ensembles, and with those
 led by Anthony Braxton, Dave Burrell, Mark Dresser, Vijay Iyer, Oliver
 Lake, and Meshell Ndegeocello. Lehman's pieces for large orchestra and
 chamber ensembles have been performed by the Janacek Philharmonic,
 members of Ensemble 21 and Ensemble Sospeso, and by the pianist
 Marilyn Nonken. Lehman's recent electro-acoustic music has focused on
 the development of computer-driven models for improvisation using
 Max/MSP. Lehman is a doctoral candidate in Music Composition at
 Columbia University. Lehman's recordings as a leader include On
 Meaning (Pi 2007) and Demian as Posthuman (Pi 2005), featuring 9-time
 Grammy nominee Meshell Ndegeocello.
