    “A new client came to see me and I was knocked out by the sound after he played 3 notes on his Selmer Mk VI soprano. Little did I know that I’d be knocked out again 3 hours later when I googled him. He said he was a singer/ soprano sax player. He’s definitely a soprano player, with a gorgeous, rich singing sound. Then I heard him sing and….wow! His name is Danny Bacher and he is the real deal- an entertainer with vocal and musical taste and chops. It was a real treat to hang with him and even more of a treat to hear him.”
