It's free improvisation for people who think they don't like free improvisation - and for those who know they do. The chemistry between the musicians is just perfect."
(Chris May - All About Jazz).

Tony Bevan

Tony Bevan

Firmly established on the free improv scene, Tony Bevan is one of the few saxophonists who include the bass saxophone in their selection of reeds. It takes an extremely skilled and imaginative musician to coax the wide spectrum of sounds available from this monster instrument. Tony has worked extensively with bass player Jon Edwards, including playing with free jazz master drummer Sonny Murray on his UK tour.
