Frank van Helvoirt playing the Blues with his Topsax

I have a very good customer in Amsterdam, Netherlands who loves Silver horns. He purchased a Topsax Designer Series IV Alto and Saxello (both Silver Plated with Gold keys) from me about a year ago. I visited with Frank recently and was delighted to hear he is in good health and spirits. He constantly reminds me the TOPSAX “kicks ass.” Frank is no slouch at playing saxophones. You can tell by listenting to this great “blues” Mp3 track.


Frank is playing his Topsax Designer Series IV
“Silver” Alto in this soundtrack.

I asked Frank to send me (in his own words) a short “bio” about himself and his passion for playing horns:

FrenQ is an unconventional composer and artist who plays in Western Europe. Mostly Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands. Emotion is the keyword. The European public knows FrenQ as a live beast on saxes. Even after hitting fifty years of age, FrenQ is still full of energy. Screaming saxes are combined with alternative romantic and instrumental compositions. The minor 7/9/13 chord is FrenQ’s lead in all he does.

FrenQ plays a Topsax Alto and Saxello live and sometimes a Alto Selmer Balanced action. He also has an Alto SML Gold Medal and Tenor Yamaha. He occassionally plays a Walstein Bauhaus Soprano but the Topsaxes are his first love!!!

Hey Frank.. it was wonderful hearing from you. Thanks so much for the great soundtrack.

Take Care,
Bob
