ABOUT ME

I am a professional saxophone player, playing jazz, blues and rock mostly. I also play with musicians from the world of folk music. I play a beautiful 1959 Selmer Mark VI tenor and a Yanagisawa soprano sax mostly and a Yamaha alto sax occasionally. I have played and performed for many years and have studied jazz with many great musicians. I’m based in Derbyshire so Nottingham, Derby, Manchester, Sheffield, Birmingham etc are in easy reach. I am quite happy travelling further afield within the UK or other parts of Europe. Depending on the occasion I can perform with one or more musicians – The Steve Salfield Duo is saxophone with either a guitarist or pianist. The Steve Salfield Trio includes a double bass as well. The Steve Salfield Quartet brings in the drums too and we can also include a singer to make up the quintet. I aim to produce beautiful music that says something new but with jazz roots.
