Mike LeDonne Quartet: Jazz Ensemble in New York

About Mike LeDonne Quartet

The Mike LeDonne Quartet is a hard-bop rooted jazz group led by pianist and organist Mike LeDonne, heard regularly in New York City rooms such as Smalls Jazz Club. LeDonne’s career spans work with bandleaders including Benny Goodman, Milt Jackson, and Benny Golson, alongside long-standing roles as a composer and educator. In performance he often moves between piano and organ, shaping the set from the keyboard and directing the ensemble in real time. The playing favors drive and structure over display.
