Beccy Rork runs the highly popular band Saxshop with Charlotte Glasson.
Saxshop is a community saxophone ensemble based in the Brighton & Hove area formed by Simon D’Souza in 2003.
In 2005 Beccy joined Simon and they co-led the band. Beccy was joined by trombonist Mark Bassey when Simon began teaching at Chichester College in 2009.
When Mark left for his other commitments in 2018, Saxshop were fortunate to welcome multi~instrumentalist Charlotte Glasson to co-lead Saxshop.
