Home of the Yorkshire Musical Saw Player
Hey up...Welcome to my web
site where I aim to provide advice about playing the musical saw. This
site has been recently updated with new information and samples about saws,
composers, resources and much more. You will
find information on the different types of instruments, where to get them from,
how to play them and what to expect. I've thrown in some humour (of sorts),
history, physics as well as some information about what I do.
Although in the UK the instrument is not as popular as say America, through my concerts, workshops,
demonstrations and radio/TV appearances I hope to change all of that.
Musical Saws are now being produced right here in Yorkshire and will hopefully start a new generation of cutting edge musicians. So if you're interested in
having a go, or are just interested to see how it is played, then please browse around this site.
Simply point at the titles in the menu bar above and select a page from the list that appears.
As a performer (a musical saw act), I can provide light entertainment programmes of music for formal concerts, music hall events, cabaret, weddings, folk, avant-garde and unusual events. I've been on Radio and TV, performed for recording sessions for a number bands across the UK and I've composed musical saw music. I also run musical saw workshops for large corporations and music festivals and carry out one to one lessons either online or at home. More will be explained on the other pages.
I am always interested to hear from other saw players and/or potential saw players as well as enquiries about performing (almost anywhere). Plus if you would like to share your stories, saw jokes and comments please get in touch.
Best wishes
Charles Hindmarsh
