Paul Cornish is a British saxophonist and composer known for a style that blends post-bop jazz sensibilities with elements of contemporary classical music and improvisation.

He frequently leads ensembles exploring extended forms and collaborative improvisation.

The Joshua Redman Quartet is a highly regarded ensemble in contemporary jazz, led by American saxophonist Joshua Redman. Formed in the early 1990s, the quartet gained prominence through its energetic performances and Redman’s virtuosic playing. Throughout its history, the group has featured prominent musicians including pianist Peter Bernstein, bassist Christian McBride, and drummer Brian Blade – though personnel have evolved over time. The quartet’s sound is rooted in the hard bop tradition but incorporates influences from diverse sources like funk, rock, and world music. They are known for their dynamic interplay and improvisational prowess, having released numerous critically acclaimed albums and toured internationally extensively. The current lineup as of late 2023 includes Redman on saxophone, Dan Weiss on drums, Reuben Rogers on bass, and Joel Frahm on piano.
