Looking for smooth wedding saxophonist music to set the scene for a romantic evening? Need some live sax background music to provide an elegant touch to a private function, birthday party or special celebration? Perhaps you require a relaxed and yet sophisticated atmosphere for welcoming drinks or dining music, as opening saxophone entertainment for a corporate event? Why not consider the universal appeal an artistic and expressive Sax player can hold for your guests?
Many of today's wedding professionals and event facilitators all agree alike that the soulful moods and vibrant sounds of a well-played Solo Saxophone, by a skilled and experienced Saxophonist, can add a major contribution to the success of your wedding or party. A good Saxophone player is always a popular and affordable choice for any venue size amongst many wedding planners, function organizers, event coordinators and service providers, when it comes to selecting an event entertainer, function artist or wedding musician.
Already well known as an experienced live sound engineer, acoustics expert and studio music producer, Sax player Friedel Knobel is also a talented musician and professional Saxophonist, available for live performance, and comes highly recommended as a specialist in weddings, private functions and corporate entertainment events requiring classy, easy-listening, unobtrusive background music, well suited to sundowner or dining sets.
Music material covered is of a wide variety, accessible to all ages and the repertoire usually includes various Jazz and Latin standards, Gospel (weddings), popular Contemporary Pop and Oldie ballads, funky jazz-rock instrumentals, as well as many recognized Saxophone tunes. Playing has been described as smooth, ranging from soulful and soothing melodies to passionate and vibrant passages, sensitive, full of feeling, and of giving a sense of style, elegance and sophistication to any occasion. Accompaniment is by well-orchestrated, studio produced backtracks, and serves well as general background music during breaks.
Weddings (pre-ceremony, ceremony, pre-reception and/or reception), private birthday and garden parties, barmitzvahs, funerals, wine tastings, Sax-o-gram messages, anniversary celebrations & other dining occasions (Valentine's day, Mother's day), hotel, restaurant & poolside cocktail lounges, art galleries, corporate year-end and other special / gala functions & opening events, award / prize-giving ceremonies, product launches, company conferences, matrimonial & bridal expos, art & photographic exhibitions, festivals, etc.

Weddings, Private functions, Corporate events.
2009- 2024 Since we started we’ve performed at hundreds of weddings, parties and events across the SA.
Dave Koz - Jazz & Contemporary Pop / Ballads - Shakin' the Shack!
"professional, reliable, punctual, prepared"
"excellent, proficient, an absolute pleasure"
We normally arrive 2 hours before the performance to set up. We normally perform 2 x 45 minutes or 2 x 60 minute sets. We’re happy to play a bit longer or shorter but we’ve found that these set times suit us and our audiences best.
We’re happy to play outside but we ask for shade, a flat level surface and a power supply close to the performance area.
We can learn specific songs before the event but we usually limit this to 5 songs. The clients are welcome to pick a set list from our repertoire or let us choose the music for them.
Music material covered is of a wide variety, accessible to all ages and the repertoire usually includes various Jazz and Latin standards, Gospel (weddings), popular Contemporary Pop and Oldie ballads, funky jazz-rock instrumentals, as well as many recognized Saxophone tunes.
