I started playing jazz saxophone with Big Band conductorMr. Gerald Cooper at Berkley College of Music in 1978. I had my own band in 1980 called Dominic s Music. We played old standards and pop tunes Like Beatles Bob Dylan Neil Young etc.We did weddings private parties and nightclubs in and around the Boston area. The last band I was with is called IN THE MIDNIGHT HOUR We played all classic rock music.Their best gig was at the Hatch Shell in Boston.My last major concert was for a host of pretty impressive guests Including former President Bill Clinton while he was still in office.Senator John Kerryand Senator Ted Kennedy were also present.I Played in the 22-piece John Payne saxophone choir at the Park Plaza Castle in Boston.Security was so tight The secret service did background checks on each musician And we had to leave our instruments at the door to be searched by white house staff before we could enter the building.As soon as we started playing President Clinton pointed to us and yelled I love that band.
