His recordings have topped Billboard, iTunes, and streaming charts, including Tokyo #9 with Jimmy Chamberlin, Love Supreme Collective, Bang!, and Mighty Burner, which held a spot on the Billboard Jazz Charts for 20 straight weeks. Catalano has also collaborated with David Sanborn, Miles Davis, Charles Earland, Elvin Jones, Stan Getz, Betty Carter, Tito Puente, and Tony Bennett, making him one of the most versatile and sought-after saxophonists of his generation.
Catalano’s career is marked by resilience and recognition: he overcame a devastating hand injury to reclaim his virtuosic technique, has appeared on three Grammy-winning and 11 Grammy-nominated recordings, was inducted into the Fox Valley Arts Hall of Fame, and at just 19 was voted into the Downbeat Critics Poll. Beyond performing, he authored Modern Saxophone Techniques for Hal Leonard, serves on the Board of the National Saxophone Museum, and continues to compose, teach, and inspire worldwide.
