Mr. Saxophone

Mr. Saxophone is a music program for children, going strong in the St. Louis area for over 10 years. Performer Dave Farver plays the saxophone and acoustic guitar with a prerecorded accompaniment while the kids sing and dance. The performances are thematic and are completely new from month to month.

The shows are very interactive with costumes, musical instruments, and props to let the kids get in on the fun! The majority of child care centers and schools feature Mr. Saxophone monthly or weekly as part of their regular program, while others invite him in for special occasions (parents night, picnics, in-house field trips).

The shows are entertaining as well as educational, with an emphasis on informing kids of the wondrous variety of instruments and musical styles from around the world. Over 140 different organizations have invited Mr. Saxophone including area public schools, YMCAs, libraries, the Red Cross, Kindercare, Children's World, La Petite Academy, countless private child care centers.

So give Mr. Saxophone a try. It's a sure-fire way to make the kids happy, and to offer stimulation for the growing mind.
