June Emerson Wind Music at the RNCM Sax Day - Sunday 28th October 2012


This popular annual RNCM Saxophone Day returns on 28 October 2012, with a stunning variety of concerts, workshops and the now traditional Massed Saxophones session. This year's special guests are the Apollo Saxophone Orchestra, Huw Wiggin and Tim Abel, and two quartets led by players at the forefront of the international jazz scene; Karen Sharp and Marius Neset.   

June Emerson Wind Music will be there too, with all our saxophone music and books. With such a comprehensive stock of music available for you to look through and buy, you can't afford not to come and see us! If you're going to be there and would like music put aside for you, please give as much notice as possible, as some things may be needed to be ordered in, which can take time.

For further info and booking please visit the RNCM website.
