URBAN SAX is the fruit of a long acoustic and architectural research that began in 1973... after "LARD FREE" (repetitive and experimental acoustic and synthetised forms of music). Over the years, from projects to projects, the band increased to its present form : saxophonists, chorus singers, percussionists, bass player and dancers.
URBAN SAX can be augmented by local participants from Dance and Music Schools. This has no limit ; the band has sometimes numbered 200 !
Whenever it’s possible, Gilbert Artman likes the band to be joined by some musicians issued from different musical horizons.
For example, the band was joined in Jakarta by Balinese dancers and Gamelan musicians, in Vancouver by some Native American Drummers and Scottich pipers, in Turkey by some Sufis, in Tokyo by some traditional Japanese drummers...
URBAN SAX has been invited all over the world to perform in events such as the inauguration of plazas, theatres, monuments... opened and closed countless festivals, played in differents places, (castles, caves, churches), “redefined” truly urban environments like subways, factories, electric power stations and has been asked to participate in numerous events...

serenity of dawn invades my soul while bluebonnets dance in murmuring breeze silence of the clouds whisper promises of a bright new day as sparrows sing smiles to bless the morn full day has begun as sunlight bursts forth like the peace i feel from the full glory of serenity of dawn ~debi~ ~I trust you had a glorious Sun Day and may your week ahead be full of peace and happiness~ Much love and light always my friend ~debi
"Love - a wildly misunderstood although highly desirable malfunction of the heart which weakens the brain, causes eyes to sparkle, cheeks to glow, blood pressure to rise and the lips to pucker"
Of all this unintelligible world, Is lightened that serene and blessed mood, In which the affections gently lead us on Until, the breath of this corporeal frame And even the motion of our human blood Almost suspended, we are laid asleep In body, and become a living soul; While with an eye made quiet by the power Of harmony, and the deep power of joy, We see into the life of things.
Have an awesome day!
Love, Peace & Light
~Izabella~
music of love dances on the air floating ever free so fair the wonder of love's first blush the heart sings love's sweet aria while souls touch in love's ballet spirit embraces music of love ~debi~ ~May your weekend be filled with all the things and people you love~ Much love & light always my sweet friend ~debi
