A trumpet player in a previous life, but defected several years ago to saxes and clarinet, he has performed across Europe the USA and Canada in a variety of ensembles varying from big band to classical. Richard formed the quartet in 2015 with the help of Rachael, and since then the quartet has gone from strength to strength. His drive behind the group is to bring classical, contemporary and jazz music accesible to all and use the versatility of the saxophone as a medium to achieve this.
