Biography

Jazz saxophonist Anton Schwartz has been drawing listeners in with the power, spirit and subtle complexity of his music since he bounded onto the San Francisco jazz scene in 1995. At 27, Anton was answering the call of his long-standing passion for jazz, stepping away from the high-level research in Artificial Intelligence he'd carried out at Harvard and Stanford. Quite a career change. Once in… Read more in Amazon's Anton Schwartz Store

5.0 out of 5 stars Passion with an edge, March 2, 2000
By 
Sally DeHart (San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Slow Lane (Audio CD)
The Slow Lane is a an album that makes a strong, conherent musical statement, but never sacrifices music quality for the sake of a "concept". The atmosphere is relaxed but has depth and substance--a strong passion comes through. Schwartz makes every note count; The Slow Lane is a place where less is definitely more. Schwartz's original compositions show the influences of various jazz greats (Abdullah Ibrahim, Wayne Shorter...), just as he manages to make others' compositions his own through novel arrangements and interpretations that respect the original works. And if nothing else, this album is worth owning just for Schwartz's remarkable, substantial sound. Listen to his tone...

5.0 out of 5 stars jazz at its finest, August 24, 2000
By 
P. Andreatta (Palo Alto, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Slow Lane (Audio CD)
This artist has an extraordinary sound that is lilting in one moment, moody and introspective in the next, but always with a resonance that lasts beyond the moment. The original compositions show great mastery of the genre, and the covers are performed with suprising turns on what could be familiar phrasing. Every time I listen to this CD, I find more to love about it.
