my biography

George Levantovsky discovered music at the age of five and soon after started taking piano lessons. At first he concentrated primarily on the piano until the age of 20 when he found his calling on the tenor sax. Already in the following year he appeared on stage, playing the sax on the R&B stage of the Pori Jazz festival in 2000. Since then he has done numerous gigs with various jazz, nu jazz, and funk and R&B groups and also played jazz duos. Next to improving himself as a musician, George has always been interest in composing and open mindedly pursuing his own musical preferences.

Hey!
Cool mix between modern electronica and old school jazz man! Very original.

Please take the time to check out my music, and vote for me in the "Real worlds studio competition" if you see it fitting. :-)

Best regards
