This is the official web site of American saxophonist
Jonathan Helton, soloist, chamber musician and Professor at the University of
Florida. Thanks for visiting!
I have been playing the saxophone for over 40 years. My instrument has
taken me all over the world—France, Belgium, United Kingdom, Switzerland, Greece, Czech
Republic, Croatia, Canada, China, Taiwan, Singapore, Japan, Thailand, Australia, Panama, Colombia, Argentina, Chile, Brazil, South Africa, and to twenty of
these United States. I have
been teaching others to play the saxophone for over 30 years. My students have secured positions teaching in secondary
schools, colleges and universities throughout the Unites States and Asia; they
are active performing in professional chamber ensembles, for the Ringling
Brothers Circus, and in the premiere U.S. military bands. I am looking forward to
more travels and the chance to share my music and my tricks of the trade with
wonderful students and audiences.

to see you in the concert hall! -Jonathan Helton
