Lew Tabackin
Born:
Lew Tabackin flutist and tenor saxophonist, is an artist of astonishing vision. His electrifying flute playing is at once virtuosic, primordial, cross-cultural, and passionate.

His interest in music began in his birthplace, Philadelphia, where he first studied flute and then tenor saxophone in high school
