Recently, Gordon Beadle, “Sax Gordon” visited the Kinder 1’s at the Eliot K-8 Innovation School. Sax Gordon is “FANCY – “One of the best and most vibrant young sax players in the business”- Blues Revue, and travels the globe playing. He will be performing in Brookline on May 10. http://www.saxgordon.com/tours

Gordon brought with him his tenor and baritone saxophones. He explained how they work and the differences between the two. He fielded MANY questions from the 4 and 5 year olds – and took song requests. Some of the requested songs that he played: “We will rock you”, “Twinkle twinkle little star”, “Mary had a little lamb”, “Wheels on the bus”, and “Puff the Magic Dragon” – the kids sang along to that one.

Gordon is the husband of the very talented Eliot teacher Marina Boni – Thank you Marina for arranging this visit! The Eliot Kinder 1’s were so lucky to have met Sax Gordon!
