David will create a relaxing
mood for your wedding reception, drinks party, corporate entertaining, lunch or dinner, with foot-tapping numbers, gentle melodies and
show-stopping themes with full bodied tenor saxophone and mellow clarinet. The
change of instrument produces a refreshing contrast and feeling. A wide range of music from jazz standards, film and show music, Latin rhythms, (cha cha, bossa nova, samba etc), pops, Beatles, Frank Sinatra hits to name a few. (see playlist)
All played with high quality, rhythmic instrumental accompaniment, as demonstrated
