Jemeel MOONDOC

Jemeel Moondoc is a jazz saxophonist who plays alto saxophone. He is a proponent of a highly improvisational style.
He studied clarinet and piano before settling on saxophone at sixteen. He became interested in jazz largely due to Cecil Taylor and at the University of Wisconsin–Madison he was a student of Taylor's. After that he went to New York City where he founded Ensemble Muntu with William Parker, Roy Campbell, Jr., and Rashid Bakr. The group also had its own "Muntu label", but eventually faced financial difficulties. He worked with Parker again in 1998's album New World Pygmies.
