About Teo Macero
Producer, composer, and tenor saxophonist Teo Macero attended Julliard and became a member of Charles Mingus’s Jazz Composers’ Workshop in the early 1950s. Macero was influenced by classical and avant-garde ideas, and these elements characterized his playing style. He began recording as a leader in ’53, and cut a handful of dates in the ensuing decades until his death in 2008. Yet Macero’s true achievements were as a producer, and he did his most important work for Columbia from the late ‘50s on, producing classics like Miles Davis’s KIND OF BLUE and Dave Brubeck’s TIME OUT. Macero may be best remembered for his work on Davis's IN A SILENT WAY and BITCHES BREW, which introduced new techniques of collage-style editing.
