About the Artist

The forceful tone and improvisational style of Andrew D’Angelo have made him one of the most influential alto saxophonists of his time. As a composer, he has created a language rooted in jazz but fusing electro-acoustic music, noise, and modern classical. In 2008, while driving his landlady to Costco, D’Angelo had a seizure so violent that he bit through his tongue and nearly broke his back. He awoke in a hospital. He was soon scheduled for surgery and blogging about it, making clear that he had no insurance. After a cancerous tumor was found, he had his right frontal lobe removed. He worked with healers on his recovery. “I did not want chemo or radiation. I KNEW there was another way. A path that would lead me to being cancer free. Four years later I have done just that, and made my life healthy again.”
