Anton Delecca Quintet
Sunday, February 16, 2025 @ 7:30 pm
Doors open at 7:00 pm
Presented by the Melbourne Jazz Co-operative, with funding assistance from Creative Australia and Music Australia
Tenor saxophonist Anton Delecca’s music is soulful and passionate, drawing from a diverse range of influences including folk, gospel, spiritual jazz, 70s acid fusion and music from the current NYC jazz scene. The rhythm section features three of Delecca’s long term collaborators, all leading jazz musicians in their own right, Darrin Archer – piano, Danny Fischer – drums and Tom Lee – bass. Rising star Bernard Alexander will be joining them on alto saxophone. Delecca was based in New York from 2017-19 where he recorded his last album, ‘The Offering’. It features international rising star and Blue Note recording artist, alto saxophonist Immanuel Wilkins and is released on Earshift Music. The repertoire will consist of music from that album, along with new compositions and arrangements by Delecca.
