JAZZ: Bebop, JAZZ: Traditional Jazz Combo
Details:
One of the most versatile contemporary saxophonists is undoubtedly Dino Govoni. Govoni learned from two tenor sax greats, Jerry Bergonzi and George Garzone, and furthered his studies by attending the Berklee College of Music soon after. Govoni hit the road right away with a variety of musical outfits, playing and/or recording with such diverse artists as Grover Washington Jr., Randy Brecker, Eddie Gomez, Billy Hart, Larry Goldings, Bill Stewart, Arturo Sandoval, Terence Trent D''Arby, Robben Ford, Mel Tormé, the Manhattan Transfer, the Boston Pops, the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra, the John Allmark Jazz Orchestra, Frankie Valli, and Englebert Humperdinck, among others.
May of 2000 saw Govoni participating in Arista Records'' star-studded 25th anniversary concert, playing with Aretha Franklin in New York City. A year later, Govoni issued his debut album, "Breakin'' Out", and this past September, his second CD, "In the Library", both on the Whaling City Sound label.
In addition to his performances, Govoni is currently on the faculty at Berklee College of Music (as an assistant professor of woodwinds) and lives in New York where he teaches students privately, as well.
