Saxophonist, composer and producer Azar Lawrence joined us in the studio to talk about his most recent record, Mystic Journey, and his May 5th gig at the Jazz Standard with his quartet (Jeremy Pelt, Billy Hart, Essiet Essiet, Benito Gonzalez). The McCoy Tyner compositions that began the show all feature Azar on saxophone.
