Hi,
My name is Gilberto (44 yrs), I am originaly from Curitiba in Brazil, I
have lived in Milan, Italy for the past twenty years.
I play (I try...) the baritone, bass and contrabass saxophones and I
collaborate with J'Elle Stainer Extreme Saxophones factory from Brazil
(wwww.below65-4hz.com).
My main business activity is International Freight Forwarding but my
real passion is jazz, vintage instruments and saxophone making.
I have a collection of saxes including curved sopranino, c-melody,
Grafton, Selmer MK VI's alto, tenor (Balanced Action), baritone and
bass, slide-sax (Swanee and "Ivophone" made by J'Elle Stainer), J'Elle
Stainer low A bass, contrabass and other odd instruments, cd's,
articles, sheet music, photos...
I am currently looking for a contrabass sarrusophone, I have a few
recordings of Roscoe Mitchell playing the sarrusophone and I would like
to know more about these horns.
Thanks for letting me join this group.
Gilberto
