In the whole of the twentieth century no other instrumentalist exercised such an enduring influence in the international saxophone world as Jean-Marie Londeix. In celebration of the 85th birthday of this French virtuoso and living legend, the Dabringhaus & Grimm Archive series is re-releasing the four album set replete with historic recordings from 1957 to 1995. This portrait offers a representative cross section from a rich artist's life as well as an overview of the important saxophone literature of a whole epoch. Jean-Marie Londeix studied saxophone with the legendary Marcel Mule at the Paris Conservatory. [3] He also studied with Fernand Oubradous and Norbert Dufourcq, among others. He then served as the saxophone instructor at the Conservatory of Dijon for 18 years. He retired from the Conservatoire de Bordeaux, France in 2001. Jean-Marie Londeix won the international saxophone competition when he was only 15 years old. He is the founder of the "French Saxophonists Association" and the "International Saxophone Committee. " More than 100 varied compositions have been written specifically for him, and he has published several pedagogical works.
