Biography
Daunik Lazro is a French jazz saxophonist.
His professional start was in the bassist Saheb Sarbib's orchestra, a relationship he maintained through most of the '70s, including three recordings. His first steps playing his own music involved a radical resizing of the cast on stage, going from orchestra playing to solo saxophone concerts and duets. In the '80s he busily played with many on the European improvised music scene, including bassit Jean Jacques Avenel, cellist Tristan Honsinger, violinist Carlos Zingaro, drummer Christian Rollet, saxophonist Evan Parker, trombonist George Lewis, bassist Joelle Léandre and pianist Irene Schweizer. In the mid '80s Lauzro expanded his partnerships to include dance and theatre projects, including work with the Company of the Chance.
