Jonathan plays a whole bunch of instruments in a variety of styles, and this video features just a small selection: flute, clarinet, piccolo, saxophone, oboe, cornet and more!
In this video, you can see Jonathan accompanying a recital by classical saxophonist Samantha Atkinson, practising for a workshop with the London Musical Theatre Orchestra, and being rehearsal pianist for a woodwind class at Royal Birmingham Conservatoire.
A snippet of a contemporary piece of music written by Andrew Ball for two opposing SATB saxophone groups. This piece is reminiscent of a chimera, a mythical creature combining features of lion, serpent and goat. Can you hear it roar?
The beast of a sax soli from Gordon Goodwin’s Cruisin’ For A Bluesin’. That’s all.
A lockdown cover of Billie Eilish’s iconic Bond theme. Here, Jonathan is joined by his sister when they were all stuck at home.
Aria by Eugene Bozza is a gorgeous piece in the classical saxophone repertoire. This snippet was recorded while Jonathan was testing new altos at Dawkes in Maidenhead.
Short but sweet. Gordon Goodwin’s Count Bubba features solis for every section, but naturally the saxophone one is the best… No bias here.
Gordon Goodwin strikes again. High Maintenance is an incredible chart with a cracking sax soli. This time with rhythm section!
