Rob Buckland - Saxophonist

Welcome to the new and updated robbuckland.com. I’ve been working on this re-design with Caroline Tresman from www.knowledge.co.uk for months now, (she’s looked after my website from the beginning in 2003) and finally have everything looking as I want it. There’s loads more to do now, with lots of sound and video clips, and a much more comprehensive page of my recordings, and publications, all linked to astute-music.com, all in all a much more interactive website.

On the gig front, I spent New Year working with the RLPO and John Wilson, firstly with a New Year’s Eve gig called “Swing into New Year”, featuring so many great swing charts, beautifully scored, and played to perfection by the RLPO with special guest musicians including Mike Lovatt, Andy Wood, Mark Crooks, Matt Skeltern, Jeremy Brown... and vocalist Gary Williams, and then two performances of the Wizard of Oz, with the RLPO playing the score live to the film under the masterful direction of John Wilson - such a challenge, to stay within an 8th of a second of the film for over 2 hours....!!!

Do sign up to the mailing list, and keep in touch. There’s lots of info about concerts and workshops on the calendar page, so I hope to see you soon.

RB.
