Wind Synth/Saxophonist STEVE CRISTAO is a unique and exciting addition to Green Thirteen and is seen on special performances. Steve is a fiery and flashy saxophonist and will be seen playing a mix of soprano, alto, tenor & sometimes bari sax in his performances. He also plays an electronic breath controlled instrument called "wind synth" that is approached like a saxophone but generates keyboard and synth type tones. This instrument is especially useful in modern pop & dance songs where saxophone is not often used. |
