Jim Denley is considered one of Australia’s foremost improvisers of new music with a career spanning over three decades. An emphasis on spontaneity, site-specific work and collaboration has been central to his work. He was recently awarded a Fellowship by the Australia Council and is currently working towards a paradigm shift in the notion and perception of the saxophone; to establish its relevance to ancient and current traditions in Australian music, and to extend its range with the addition of innovative electronics and miking. Denley also runs the record label Splitrec. In Mural, Jim plays flute and saxophone.
