Albert Rivera Jazz

Albert Rivera – Saxophonist, Composer, Bandleader, Adjunct Professor (SUNY Purchase) Clinician and Director Of Operations at Litchfield Performing Arts

Updates! It’s official, I have joined the amazing faculty at SUNY Purchase Jazz Conservatory. It is my absolute honor to be part of this team. Do not hesitate to reach out with any questions and I hope to see you in a future semester.

Past Accolades – I was a 2021 recipient of the City Artist Corps Grant. This was made possible through the New York City Artist Corps, New York Foundation of the Arts, and the New York City Cultural Affairs. The show featured Luques Curtis on Bass, Ian Carroll on Drums, Will Evans on Piano, Andrew Hadro on Baritone Sax and spoken word artist and poet Joél Leon. This show was presented for free to the local community at the Bronx Library Center on October 16th, 2021. What an honor!
