Santi Debriano has been composing music on his acoustic bass since 1982. His abilities as an improviser, arranger and composer have made him a favorite of such greats as Archie Shepp, Sam Rivers, Pharaoh Sanders, Oliver Lake, Freddie Hubbard, Danilo Perez and others. He has over 100 recordings as sideman to his credit, and 9 recordings as a leader. Mr. Debriano, who is also an able guitarist, teaches privately from his home on Staten Island, and for this show will feature his exciting quintet Flash of the Spirit.
