 ho also  plays tenor and baritone saxophone\, saxello\, clarinet\, oboe\, 
 and vocals.  He is actually a consummate world musician and teacher who ha
 s devoted  his life to using music to elevate the human spirit.\nHis soulf
 ul and fiery saxophone style is instantly recognizable to generations of j
 azz fans world-wide.\nAs a performer and composer he continues to sweep au
 diences into  ecstasy with his vast range of creative\, emotional\, and te
 chnical  inventiveness. With a superb knowledge and practical experience w
 ith  music of several cultures\, he fuses\, with each selection\, a musica
 l  genre that is coherent\, provocative\, logical\, and enjoyable.\nAs a s
 inger\, he brings a kind of storytelling narrative to the blues  that is e
 ntertaining\, educational\, and moving\; while his &quot\;up tempo&quot\; 
 scat  vocals could be compared to the best scat singers anywhere. He sings
   ballads with inventiveness that is rare among singers.\nJohn Handy's web
