WHAT DAYNA WILL COVER:
- Picking a good melody to harmonize
- Choosing what bass notes are best for that given melody as counterpoint
- Choosing which group of chords fits best to the counterpoint created
- Editing the final version making sure it doesn’t take away from the melody or flow of the song
- Exploring instrumentations that best fit the reharm

In addition to leading his own group, Dayna has performed extensively with Kenny Barron, Ambrose Akinmusire, Taylor Eigsti, Julian Lage, Eric Harland, Gerald Clayton, and other contemporaries.
He is a recipient of the number-two spot for the 2017 DownBeat Critics Poll in the category “Rising Star—Tenor Saxophone”
A graduate of the Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz, where he studied under artistic icons Terence Blanchard, Wayne Shorter and Herbie Hancock, Dayna began his formal studies with a full scholarship at Berklee College of Music in Boston.
