HARRISON ARGATOF

Harrison Argatoff is a Toronto based tenor saxophonist and composer.  A recent graduate of The University of Toronto’s jazz program, he strives to create an original musical voice capable of imparting personality, character, and vulnerability.  Having grown up a Doukhobor, in the interior of British Columbia, teachings of pacifism, communal music making, and respect for life and nature have deeply affected his personal and artistic endeavors.  Harrison is currently focusing on developing a modern approach to music through original composition for a variety of ensembles, and also for solo performance.  Harrison’s music combines the study of many musics, including free improvised music, traditional jazz music, and contemporary classical music. from https://harrisonargatoff.com
