Saxophone Workshop

11am-1pm, Saturday 28th June 2008
Pyramid Centre (next to Parr Hall), Warrington

NCWO are pleased to offer an exciting opportunity to participate in an informal workshop with Royal Northern College of Music sax tutors Rob Buckland & Andy Scott. Rob and Andy, who perform regularly as members of the Apollo Saxophone Quartet and sax group Sax Assault will lead a 2 hour sax workshop, covering various aspects of sax playing and performance.

Participants will rehearse an ensemble piece to perform during the evening’s SaxFest performance at the Pyramid Centre.

Places are £10 (free for NCWO members) and will be allocated on a first-come-first served basis. The only requirements are enthusiasm, a saxophone and an ability to read music. Non-playing observers are welcome to attend for £5. To secure a place, please download, complete and return a booking form. For more information, please email us.

Andy & Rob are leading saxophone players and composers and also founders of the RNCM Sax Day, now in its 8th year and the largest annual Saxophone event in the UK. See www.robbuckland.com, www.andyscott.org.uk and www.saxassault.com.
