Reviews for 'Sanctuary'
"music with a heart-rending simplicity..very beautiful, very different"
In Tune, BBC Radio 3 Interview with Sean Rafferty "for his own ensemble he has perfected a supremely refined tone ..the playing was faultless" "Simply Glorious!" "One of the most enjoyable performances I have been to"  Christian Forshaw is a saxophonist and composer whose career to date reflects the qualities required of a musician in the 21st Century. Long gone are the days where a musician spends an entire career working within the same boundaries and increasingly musicians find their work transcending genre after genre.
Audiences have found a powerful connection with Forshaw's compositions and performances, and reactions to both Sanctuary and Renouncement have been profound from both the traditional classical establishment (BBC Radio 3 etc.) through to more commercial stations such as BBC Radio 2 and Classic FM. Live performances have left audiences spellbound and moved by the power and intimacy of the music.
