Description

Art Themen has brought joy to thousands throughout the course of his astonishing career; the world-class quality of his playing and his personal warmth and generosity a welcome addition to any bandstand. HIs style originally owed much to the influence of Dexter Gordon and Sonny Rollins, but later influences included such disparate saxophonists as Coleman Hawkins, Evan Parker, and the "sheets of sound" John Coltrane. A long standing relationship with Stan Tracey sees him appear on many recordings including the seminal 'Under Milk Wood'.
