Notes on this instrument

This particular Grafton saxophone was made around the same time as Charlie Parker’s Grafton.

In this article from 2018 in the German magazine Rohrblatt, I wrote about my these special saxophones.

The Grafton saxophone can be heard on a.o.: Ornette Colemann’s “The Shape of Jazz to Come” (1959), Charlie Parker “Jazz at Massey Hall Live” (1953) and on the CD “New Music – Old Horns” by the Artvark Saxophone Quartet with Leo van Oostrom (2026).
