Rest in peace, John Dierker. Senseless violence robbed us of a great musician and teacher. This is a tremendous loss for the Baltimore music scene.

A cyclist stabbed to death Tuesday in Baltimore's Leakin Park has been identified as John Dierker, an adjunct faculty member in the music department at Towson University.

JOHN DIERKER is a beloved and legendary saxophonist/clarinetist in Baltimore. He is also one of my oldest and dearest friends. I would not do the music I do if not for him. I'm humbled that he let me record him. Just me, some sweet mics, and the Dizzler. Blast these reeds!
