My students had the distinct privilege of working with you and the other members of the Miami Saxophone Quartet

yesterday in Hartford, WI.  I just wanted to say thank you for taking your valuable time to offer this clinic session. 

At the same time I apologize for not having that theater filled with my students.  They all would have benefited by

the advice that you and your colleagues offered. My sax section will be better because of this experience.

The concert on Friday evening was absolutely amazing.   The writing of Gary and Ed was incredible. 

It was truly a wonderful evening.  Thanks so much for sharing your talents with us.  I will forever

be a consumer of your CD's.  I certainly am now a fan of this truly fabulous quartet.

On behalf of the California Band Directors Association, thank you for the outstanding clinic and cincert

at our 2008 State Convention.  You were the highlight of our annual event!  I have had so many positive

comments from those in the audience, both during and after your performance and clinic. 

Congratulations again on your fine work!

      These guys are AMAZING!!! Each year at Florida State College in Jacksonville, we bring in a guest artist/clinician to work with our students and to perform with our jazz band.

     This year (2010), I brought the Miami Sax Quartet in as our guest artist. Each member of this superb ensemble is a world class artist and educator; collectively they are a

     force to be reckoned with. During the two days they were at our school they were very generous with their time in clinics, rehearsals, and working individually with our students.

    The arrangements were great and the music captivated the audience and all of our students. This was without doubt one of the best guests we have had. I highly recommend

    that you check them out and bring this outstanding group of musicians to your program!
