Why bass saxophone

The saxophone you won't forget.

After more than three decades on saxophone, Rosemary has made the bass saxophone the centre of her sound. Huge, rich and unmistakable, it catches attention without demanding it, and turns a performance into an experience.

"Part of the atmosphere, never dominating the occasion."
