Jack Rudnick has been playing music since the 4th grade when he started studying the viola. Eventually, he became persuaded to play reed instruments and by high school he was playing Jazz saxophone.  By the end of high school he held a top state ranking on Tenor Saxophone in Pennsylvania.

    During his time at Drexel University, Jack majored in Music Technology with a concentration in Computer Science.  He persisted as lead Saxophonist in various music ensembles at Drexel under the tutelage of ethnomusicologist and Saxophonist, Dr. George Starks.  In addition, Jack specialized in
classical saxophone studying under James Kilik .

    In the present, Jack often plays with trombonist Bryan Housel and loves playing any chance he gets.  He is also very gracious for the opportunity to play at 23 street cafe.
