Leo Bonnett

I’m a 16-year-old saxophonist based in Buckinghamshire with a passion for performing music that people genuinely enjoy and connect with. So far, I have performed at care homes playing a range of familiar and well-loved music on alto saxophone, with the aim of creating uplifting and memorable experiences for audiences. I will also soon be expanding onto tenor saxophone to further broaden my sound and repertoire as a performer. One of the things I value most about live music is its ability to connect emotionally with people. Through my performances, I’ve been fortunate enough to receive emotional responses from listeners, which has shown me just how powerful music can be. My goal is always to play music that audiences know, love and can personally connect with, whether that’s through jazz standards, classic songs or more modern favourites. I enjoy adapting my performances to suit different settings and audiences, creating the right atmosphere for every occasion. Whether performing relaxed background music or more engaging feature performances, I aim to bring professionalism, enthusiasm and personality to every event. A large part of my performing experience so far has come through entertaining in care homes, where I have developed confidence as a live performer and learned how important music can be in bringing people together. These performances have helped me build strong communication skills, audience awareness and the ability to tailor programmes to suit different audiences. I particularly enjoy performing familiar and uplifting music that people can sing along to, remember and enjoy together. I am currently expanding into performances for weddings, restaurants, private parties and community events while continuing to build my experience and repertoire as a performer. My goal is to provide high-quality live saxophone music that enhances the atmosphere of every event and leaves audiences with a positive and memorable experience. Available for care homes, weddings, restaurants, private events, drinks receptions and community performances.
