Todd Oxford
Todd Oxford is the world's most pre-eminent classical Baritone Saxophonist. His touring schedule has taken him from Halifax, Nova Scotia to Bangkok, Thailand to Lisbon, Portugal and back again to his native United States. The Chronical Herald of Halifax comments, "Bach's D Minor Toccata and Fugue demanded a superlative degree of musicianship and got it from Oxford's Baritone Sax. He whipped through the crazily pianistic fugue subject with the finesse of a ballerina, which is a little like asking a semi-trailer to zig-zag from sidewalk to sidewalk at top speed down a crowded street without hitting anybody."
