## What a saxophone can do
A saxophonist turns a simple party into a refined celebration. This musician creates unrepeatable moods and lifts the guests' spirits. Why book a saxophonist for an event:
- **** — A wide range of styles: sad, romantic, fiery and dance pieces
- **** — Music full of emotion
- **** — Works with vocals and other instruments
- **** — An unforgettable live sound that gives the evening its chic
The saxophone is a sensitive instrument that gives the melodies at a celebration a sound of their own. A saxophonist's repertoire is so wide that this musician is worth inviting to any event in Phuket. Booking one gives the occasion or the evening a special weight. The saxophone plays any style: blues, jazz, pop and even disco. Cover versions of hits sound original on it. Our agency arranges the music for events, including a [wedding](https://www.doubledproject.com/en/services/wedding), a [birthday](https://www.doubledproject.com/en/services/birthday-party-phuket) or a corporate party. Book for an hour or for the whole day.

A saxophonist's playing makes a strong impression and stays in the memory. The instrument is compact, so it travels, and the artist can be invited to events of every kind. The saxophone's secret is its technical range — a wide amplitude, soft and powerful timbres. That lets the artist work in any genre, play classics, blues, rock, use complex techniques and create the feel of several voices. The flexible timbre carries emotion: sadness, passion, laughter
## Find your occasion: a saxophone for every event
When booking, first settle the format and style of the event.

A saxophonist is worth booking for many occasions:
- **Background music for a reception, a corporate event or a cocktail party**
- **Ceremonial music at a wedding or another celebration**
- **A dance set at an anniversary or a birthday**
- **Bright pieces during the photo shoot and the congratulations**
- **A surprise at a romantic dinner or a family lunch**
- **Music quizzes with cover versions**
A saxophonist for a celebration in Phuket can be booked solo or together with a [guitarist](https://www.doubledproject.com/en/services/guitarist-phuket) or a band. Live saxophone at an event is remembered by every guest. It fits any format — a family celebration, a grand banquet, a [romantic dinner](https://www.doubledproject.com/en/services/romantic-dinner) for two, a [New Year party](https://www.doubledproject.com/en/services/new-year-party-phuket). The instrument sounds original at business events (an exhibition, a launch). The service is available for a café or a [restaurant](https://www.doubledproject.com/en/locations/restaurants), an open terrace and even a yacht — it takes only the right equipment for a good sound. A professional's playing leaves nobody indifferent, with its velvet timbre and romance
## Where the saxophone works best

Sunset by the pool — the main format in Phuket: the saxophonist comes out half an hour before the sun goes down and plays while the guests watch the sea with a glass in hand. The second format is the welcome, when the instrument sets the mood before the main programme. The third — the saxophone over the [DJ](https://www.doubledproject.com/en/services/dj-phuket) set on the dance floor: the DJ holds the rhythm, the saxophone carries the melody, and the evening gets a live accent without pauses.

## How a performance goes

Three sets of twenty minutes, no more than three hours at the event; between the sets the DJ or a playlist holds the music. The saxophonist plays solo to a backing track or paired with the DJ, and acoustically at an intimate dinner. The style is picked for the evening: lounge and jazz standards for dinner, pop hits and house covers on the dance floor; pieces from your list are agreed a week ahead.

## What the venue needs

A spot the musician can be seen from, a socket or our autonomous sound, and a canopy against the rain in season. We bring the [speakers](https://www.doubledproject.com/en/services/pa-speaker-rental-phuket) for the saxophone from our own warehouse with a technician: at a [villa](https://www.doubledproject.com/en/locations/villas) a small set is enough; on a beach and on a yacht we run on battery so as not to depend on a [generator](https://www.doubledproject.com/en/catalogue/product/generator).
## What a saxophonist costs

Live musicians — from 18,000 ฿ per performance: usually two sets of 30–40 minutes at the welcome and at sunset, or one long set over dinner. We bring the sound for the saxophone from our own warehouse; on a yacht or a beach we set up autonomous power.

## How to book a saxophonist?

### Arranging the event

  When you book a saxophonist for a [corporate event](https://www.doubledproject.com/en/services/corporate-events-mice-phuket), a birthday or another celebration, we agree every detail with you: the genre, original hits or cover versions, the length of the performance, the technical side (sound and [light equipment](https://www.doubledproject.com/en/services/light-equipment-rental-phuket)), the date and the venue. These details set the price. The artist arrives early and dressed to the dress code; the rider is taken into account in preparing the performance. Book a saxophonist in Phuket by phone or through a request on the site.

### What a saxophonist costs

  We deliberately do not work to a fixed [price list](https://www.doubledproject.com/en/prices), because every event is unique. Creating a light musical background in the cocktail zone is one thing; a solo concert is quite another. The price depends on the format, the length, the venue and your creative wishes. Our manager, having discussed every detail with you, not only names the exact price but helps choose the ideal artist and a programme that best complements the atmosphere of your celebration.

### Can I request a particular song?

  Yes, of course. We discuss the programme of the event with you in advance.

### Can a saxophonist be booked together with a vocalist?

  Yes, we can arrange the event turnkey with several [artists](https://www.doubledproject.com/en/catalogue/shows)
