If you're considering a solo musician for background music here's a unique alternative for your event: an Award winning Smooth Jazz Saxophonist backed by a FULL BAND SOUND, plus the option to go Jewish or Irish... or both.
Gary Gould, winner of the KTWV "The Wave" Saxophone Competition in Los Angeles, delivers the full sound of a premium band and performs the woodwind part live for your guests.
Specializing in superb background music for upscale events (ex. corporate parties, trade shows, weddings and more) Gary plays continuously, one great song after another, from a repertoire of over six hours of memorized music.
Each performance is an original masterpiece creating an atmosphere of elegance with musicianship so precise, it will be appreciated by the most discerning music lovers.
Choose the style that's right for your event:
1) Smooth Jazz Saxophone, the most popular choice, offers rich grooves and a refreshing approach to today's most popular saxophone styles.
The music is upbeat but you can talk over it. It's the perfect soundtrack for a relaxing Southern California event, as ideal for a corporate function as it is for a luxurious beach resort wedding. There are five samples of the Sax Single music on this page.
2) Jewish Klezmer Clarinet delivers the richly ornamented, joyously authentic instrumental folk music of Eastern Europe, plus one of the best HORAs in the business.
If you're having a Jewish event in Southern California, this is the guy for you. The music is filled with passion, a touch of humor, and a lot of soul, ideal for Jewish wedding ceremonies and other events with a Yiddish flavor. You can hear two samples of klezmer clarinet music on this page.
3) Irish Penny Whistle offers some of Ireland's most magical folk tunes played with dazzling technique and wrapped up in lush, beautiful arrangements.
No instrument stirs the heart like a Celtic whistle. These songs are a mixture of reels, jigs, hornpipes and airs, and they're performed with so much charm that everyone will feel a wee bit more Irish. Don't miss the two samples of Irish Whistle on this page.
