Antonio’s unique style and individuality have made him a stand out on the contemporary and smooth jazz scene.
By blending rich melodies with tradition while creating his own musical trends, Antonio is constantly pushing the limits of his musical creativity while still maintaining a sense of musical elegance and class.
A graduate of the prestigious Berklee College of Music in Boston and the University of Minnesota; Antonio honed his craft in the early 90’s from the smoky jazz clubs in Minneapolis and Boston to some of the largest stages across the world – including the Montreux Jazz Festival, Carnegie Hall and The Royal Albert Hall.
Antonio has opened up for numerous artists, including Grammy Nominated Saxophonist Najee, The Average White Band and Pieces of a Dream, just to name a few. He recently toured alongside R&B Legend, Alexander O’Neal across the United Kingdom.
As a band leader, he has developed a sound and style that is truly his own, with original music that reflects his diverse influences and creative approach; appropriately called ‘AntonioJazz’.
From contemporary, smooth, jazz, gospel, soul, classical, pop, r&b and more; Antonio’s passion
for the saxophone and music is contagious.
My mission is to be a radiant beacon of light to the world – uplifting hearts, transforming minds and inspiring souls through the magic of the saxophone and the universal power of music.
I believe that every note carries emotion, every melody holds meaning and every performance is a chance to shape someone’s mood, elevate their day and enrich their life. That’s what ‘AntonioJazz’ represents.
‘AntonioJazz’ is more than just music – it’s a movement away from the traditional norms and beliefs of the old music industry. A music ministry rooted in soul and sophistication, ‘AntonioJazz’ transcends the boundaries of traditional smooth and contemporary jazz to establish its own distinct sound, mood and identity. ‘AntonioJazz’ hopes redefines what jazz saxophone can be, say and do – boldly forging a new path and building an entirely new path away from the traditional approach of music industry, one heartfelt song and one inspired listener at a time.
“Through unwavering commitment to the emotional impact and musical excellence, I will continue strive to turn every moment into a masterpiece – proving that when you surround yourself with Beautiful Music … you create a Beautiful Life”.
