One and a half Decade of Musical Mastery: My Journey as a Professional Saxophonist
The melodious notes of the saxophone have been the backdrop of my life's journey, echoing through the highs and lows of my professional career. Over the past decade, I have had the privilege of working with various bands, both as a sideman and a solo artist, ultimately culminating in the realisation of my dream – organising headline concerts. This write up chronicles my musical journey, which began in 2004 and has been a harmonious blend of passion, dedication, and the pursuit of artistic excellence.
The Early Years: A Saxophonist's Ascent
My journey as a professional saxophonist commenced in 2007 when I decided to pursue my lifelong passion for music as a career. This decision marked the inception of a journey filled with both challenges and achievements. I began by honing my saxophone skills, dedicating countless hours to practice and musical education.
Working with Bands
As I grew as a musician, I sought opportunities to collaborate with different bands. In 2008, I joined a local group of musicians and Singers, en "Praise Winners Crew International," as their only saxophonist. This experience allowed me to not only develop my improvisational skills but also learn the art of collaboration. Playing alongside talented musicians and exploring various genres broadened my musical horizons and shaped me into a versatile saxophonist.
