Enjoying a large range of musical styles, Bobby has merged his love for many types of music into his present style of bebop. This, combined with his obvious ability to express emotion in his playing, makes for a unique sound and approach to playing the alto sax, tenor sax, flute and soprano. He is one of those artists that prefers to record live, when possible, in order to truely exhibit the qualities that make jazz so interesting and enjoyable. Bobby Has been on over 150 recordings and various television and film scores.
