about

Live in NY is an EP dedicated to all of the music-making that has taken place in the first 4 months that I have been back in New York City. I lived in NYC from 2015-2018, but I left the big apple and moved to North Carolina on a whim in the summer of 2018, and stayed down south for just over a year. Since returning to NYC in early September of 2019, I have done more playing than my first three years in NYC combined. This album is free of charge and accessible for everyone and is not setting out to make any sort of profound artistic statement. I would like to say that in the near future I plan to release a full-length album of all original music. That album I intend to dedicate to my father, who passed away in April of 2019. While that project is still in the works, this project’s main focus is simply blowing, period. The tenor solo is the prominent feature here. My target audience with this EP is other saxophonists, musicians, and jazz improvisers of all calibers. With Live in NY, I aim to attract other aspiring saxophonists and make them aware of my playing, while also attracting saxophone enthusiasts and anyone else curious about the state of the tenor in the NYC jazz scene. This project is intended to sound rough around the edges, no mixing, no mastering, no smoke and mirrors, no-frills. All recordings take place at different locations all around the 5 boroughs, and all recordings were done on an iPhone. Headphones or decent speakers strongly encouraged. Nothing fancy. Underground, rough and tumble, but high spirited and full of life, just like the city in which these recordings were made. My name is Chris Bittner and this is Live in NY.
