Jazz
saxophonist and composer Dave Le Febvre (pronounced "Le Fay") has
performed throughout California, Europe and Japan for the past 25 years,
appearing at many local jazz festivals such as the Concord Jazz
Festival, Berkeley Jazz Festival, Napa Valley Jazz Festival, San Jose
Jazz Festival, Concerts at the Museum (Los Angeles), and as a headliner
at the Fete de la musique in Auxerre, France. Dave performs on soprano,
alto and tenor saxophones, and also on flute, clarinet, piccolo, and
wind synthesizer.
Dave Le Febvre has composed and arranged over 50 original compositions
for big band and more than 200 compositions and arrangements for small
ensembles. His works have been performed by Freddie Hubbard, Richie Cole
and many others in jazz festivals throughout the world. His experience
with groups like The Don Piestrup Big Band and The Don Ellis Orchestra
early in his career helped to inspire a creative and ever-evolving
approach toward jazz exploration. Whether his music is labeled "fusion"
or "straight-ahead," it is always based on a melodic and intensely rich
harmonic concept.
