Alto saxophonist Alex LoRe is preparing to release a new album next month with his group Weirdear of pianist Glenn Zaleski, bassist Desmond White, and drummer Allan Mednard. Karol is LoRe’s exploration of various classical composers who have inspired him over the years like Charles Ives, Maddalena Casulana, JS Bach, Julius Eastman, and more. To get what’s going on, check out the video for “Karol” inspired by the work of Karol Szymanowski below and be on the lookout for Karol when it drops September 6th on Challenge Records.
