                                            Dale Barlow

                                            Resume

                                            One of Australia’s most accomplished and internationally recognised jazz artists, Dale Barlow was a member of legendary American groups The Cedar Walton Quartet and Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers, two of the greatest training grounds for young musicians in jazz.

                                            Widely recognised as an inspiring, virtuosic and original tenor saxophonist/ composer, he is also an accomplished flautist/bass clarinettist/ arranger and pianist. As a composer he has written for large and small ensemble, film, theatre and television, and recorded extensively.

                                            His credits include touring and recording with some of the all-time greats: Sonny Stitt, Chet Baker, Gil Evans, Jackie McLean, Billy Cobham, Curtis Fuller, Eddie Palmieri, Dizzy Gillespie, Benny Golson, Lee Konitz, Sonny Stitt, Helen Merryl, Mulgrew Miller, Cindy Blackman, Ernie Watts, Eddie Henderson, Kenny Barron, Ray Drummond, Billy Higgins, Cedar Walton and, of course the original Jazz Messenger, Art Blakey.

                                            After completing his musical studies at the NSW Conservatorium, he moved to New York to further hone his musical skills. He studied saxophone with George Coleman and Dave Liebman, piano with Barry Harris, and Hal Galper, and won a scholarship to study at the Jazz Composers Workshop with Bob Brookmeyer and Manny Album. During this time he worked the New York scene and toured the world constantly, performing regularly at major jazz festivals throughout the USA, Canada, Europe,
                                            Japan, Asia and the Soviet Union, and recording with many of the great jazz artists.

                                            Since returning to Australia, Dale has received numerous awards and accolades including: Album of the Year/ Jazz Performer of the Year/ International Artist of the Year/ Bicentennial Artist of the Year, four Mo Awards and numerous grants and credits for his achievements and contribution to the arts in Australia.

                                            Dale has a Masters of Music from ANU, and continues to work around the world as a band leader, recording artist, and as a hired soloist/ composer and arranger, as well as teaching at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music.
