Story

You can buy the online version of the 'Navigation' album now at souzamusic.bandcamp.com.  You can buy it so it get's posted to you, or as a digital download.

In August 2012 I was diagnosed with a Glioblastoma Multiforme Grade IV Brain Tumour, which is a generally lethal form of tumour.   Whilst I am fighting it as hard as I can, I thought I'd spend much of my remaining time making this concert happen.  

The concert happened on Sunday 8th December at The Brunswick Venue, Holland Rd, Hove. BN3 from 730pm.  It was an amazing success.  We raised over £2880 for our various charities.  

I am a saxophonist, educator and composer - it's how I make my living.  So making this album is something that I can leave behind - a legacy, I guess.  

But in the meantime, if you want to make a donation to The Brain Tumor Charity you can do so here:

You can also make a donation to St Peters and St James Hospice, in Chailey (our local end of life hospice) here.
