18 November 2009
Last Sunday, the 15th Nov 2009, was the RNCM’s 9th Saxophone Day. And once again we had an amazing turn out! 250 saxophone players from across the UK took part in what is now the UK’s largest annual saxophone gathering, which featured concerts by the amazing french virtuoso Vincent David, jazz funk and pop virtuoso Simon Willescroft, Carl Raven and his new improvised project, the National Saxophone Choir of Great Britain and the RNCM’s own Saxophone Orchestra. An extraordinarily varied day with something for everyone. Next year, the event is on the 14th November (2010), and as it’s the 10th anniversary, we are planning an event to remember - watch this space in the new year as we announce the special guest artists!!
