Saxophonist Christopher Burton plays in so many bands these days. And they run the gamut from the New Orleans Concert Band to Purikura Panic, an anime cover band. As a child, he was exposed to much gospel, as well as the likes of Minnie Riperton, Etta James, and Sam Cooke. Submersing himself in everything extracurricular, he walks us through his life overcoming spinal meningitis and partial deafness, to the many ways he found to stay fluent and grow as a musician, and brings us up to date on teaching music and the many bands he is in today. You will not find a stronger work ethic or a more genuine person!
* The New Orleans Concert Band will hold their first concert of this year on U.N.O.'s campus, October 22nd at 3 p.m. This is a free concert.
