A talented musician will be bringing his “family of seven saxophones” to Mandurah for an educational musical theatre show next month.
What sets French born musician Serge “Pépé” Le Goueff a part from other musicians is his desire to tell the story and evolution of his favourite instrument through time.
The musician, that now resides in Dunsborough, will perform a show sprinkled with comedy, songs, and stories that will keep the audience captivated all night long.
Mr Le Goueff said he wanted to take the audience on a journey.
“I want to make sure my crowd gets a little bit of education,” he said.
“The show is properly scripted as a story that tells the history of the instrument from the 1800’s to nowadays.”
The talented saxophonist has played since he was nine-years-old and said he had learnt how to play many different makes of the instrument.
“The original one from 1841 will make an appearance,” he said.

“The origin of the saxophone was anchored to the Western European classical music age, so that is where we start the show.”
“They all have a different sound and shape. I move through the ages to the Blues, Jazz, Pop and Rock.”
Mr Le Goueff the show was family-friendly and the audience did not have to have previous musical knowledge.
“No-one has any idea what they’re in for – that’s the beauty of the show,” he said.
His show will be on March 3 from 7.30 – 9.30pm at the Mandurah Senior Main Hall, 41 Ormsby Terrace, Mandurah.
