Pedro Saxo

USA

Pedrosaxo is a P.Mauriat and Vandoren Performing Artist, and plays P.Mauriat saxs and Vandoren reeds exclusively.
During a trip to the US in 2012 Pedrosaxo met Jeff Coffin, 3x Grammy-winner with Bela Fleck & the Flecktones and saxophonist for Dave Matthews Band. The two hit it off and recorded a track together called ‘Improvisation’. That session set the stage for an ongoing collaboration and it became the final track of Pedro’s full-length debut CD, ‘PEDROSAXO’, co-produced with Jeff Coffin and released on Jeff’s Ear Up Records in March 2014.

His style as an artist and teacher, has taken him to festivals, conservatories, universities and major saxophone halls in Spain, Slovakia, France, Netherlands, United Kingdom, Portugal, USA, Japan… It is in his role as a teacher where Pedrosaxo provides saxophonists (all kinds of musicians) a unique experience encouraging his students to develop new feelings with the instrument, from the classical repertoire to the most modern technology taking technical and concert music to its limits.
As a result, Pedrosaxo is a unique artist of extreme sensitivity to the world around him, able to describe the atmosphere of faraway places through the saxophone and his body, his music combines orginality and traditional saxophone.
He chose the path of personal research, delving into the study of the saxophone and new forms of interpretation, imitation of sounds, world music, as well as performance practice with professional actors in Madrid.
After finishing his saxophone studies with honors at the Conservatory of Granada (Spain), Pedrosaxo (Pedro Rafael Garcia Moreno) was a finalist in the hit TV show ‘GOT TALENT’, performing works by his own composition.
