Grammy Award-winning saxophonist Aaron Lington presents a programme of works composed specifically for the baritone saxophone.

With its expansive musical range, expressive capability and cello-like tessitura, the instrument is well suited to this classical music inspired repertoire.

The programme includes Robert Nelson’s 1996 “Concerto for Baritone Saxophone and Orchestra,” and Eric McIntyre’s “Secondary Impressions”, along with a transcription of Astor Piazzolla’s “Milonga sin Palabras,” and

Joan Tower’s “Wings”. ”Lington...shows a true command of his instrument with a very studied and soulful essence.” - International Trumpet Guild.

Known primarily as a composer/arranger and jazz saxophonist, Lington received his doctorate from the University of North Texas in classical saxophone performance and remains active internationally through his

position at San Jose State University and as a Silicon Valley Artist Laureate.
