Saxofonist

When Haggai Cohen-Milo describes his approach to creatively engaging with works of concert literature from the perspective of a jazz musician, it is flying objects in space that spring to mind. When exploring the work, he feels like a spaceship that is attracted to the moon - the work - and accelerates further as a result, and finally overcomes the gravitational forces through targeted counter-steering, shoots past it and can explore new worlds: worlds that lie beyond it.

A founding member of the Grammy® nominated groove band Kneebody, saxophonist Ben Wendel is described by The New York Times as “a naturally inquisitive musician whose credentials branch out beyond jazz.” Recipient of multiple awards, including the ASCAP Jazz Composer Award, he’s worked with a variety of musicians from Snoop Dogg to Linda May Han Oh. For his UChicago Presents debut, Ben Wendel brings together a quartet of accomplished forward-thinking musicians.
