Altoist Lakecia Benjamin emerged in the 2010s as a major interpreter of John and Alice Coltrane’s music and a consistently passionate soloist.

Here is the saxophonist in the early part of her career, already displaying an original voice and a style that is both intense and melodic.

She performs “Dreams” before an enthusiastic audience with a group that also includes a vocal from Malika Tirolien.
