I play alto, tenor and soprano sax in all styles from jazz to classical. I play solo or with group for events, weddings or just a cocktail hour. I can provide references and have a degree in music performance from Duquesne University. I currently gig and teach woodwinds and piano in the Palm Beach area. I can play a set list or create one to suit the event. References and music on request.
Mervyn played beautifully, and it really set the tone for an amazing event. Everyone really enjoyed his music.
I had a small backyard dinner party and hired Mervyn Johnston to play the saxophone. He was absolutely fabulous. He played music of my generation and all of my friends commented on how wonderful he was. I loved the fact that he did not play too loud that we could not carry on conversations, but just loud enough that we enjoyed the music. We will definitely hire him again for our next occasion.
Great guy timely musical friendly cooperatvie!!!!
I had a cocktail holiday party for 40 people at my house. I didn't know if having a saxophonist would work. It was the best thing about the party. Mervyn played his sax on my balcony while the guests listened and mingled inside. He was such a pleasure. His music was wonderful. I will hire him annually for my party. Mervyn, thanks so much for making our party such a success in our new home… Jannice and Tony.
