Grgur Savic

Grgur Savić is a saxophonist, improviser and percussionist whose music moves between experimental jazz and collective sonic exploration. His performance combines the alto saxophone's changing registers and articulations with the rhythmic and textural possibilities of percussion.

Creative Sources documents him on Past Dreams in Rust (CS870), where the album credits alto saxophone and percussion. That pairing brings together contrasting sound sources, from breath-driven reed gestures to attacks, friction and resonance. In freely improvised music these materials can respond to one another and to the ensemble in changing ways, giving both melodic and non-melodic sounds a role in musical form.
