The Toronto Jazz Festival is excited to present Isaiah Collier in “Collier Plays Coltrane” – a special celebration of John Coltrane’s centennial.
Saxophonist Isaiah Collier has emerged as one of the most exciting voices in contemporary jazz, known for blending the rich traditions of the past with the urgency of the present to forge the sound of the future. Described as a maverick of creative and improvisational force, he has collaborated with jazz luminaries such as Kahil El’Zabar, Ambrose Akinmusire, Craig Taborn, Joe Dyson, Azar Lawrence and NEA Jazz Masters Billy Hart, Marshall Allen, and Denardo Coleman (son of free jazz pioneer Ornette Coleman), among many others. A proud member of the legendary Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians (AACM), Collier stands firmly within the lineage of Chicago’s rich tenor saxophone legacy.
DownBeat Magazine has hailed him as “The Next Sax Giant”—a title befitting an artist who continues to reshape the sonic landscape of modern jazz.
