Emma Holgate	Emma Holgate - Baritone Emma's musicianship started at the age of 7 when she took up the Piano, shortly followed by the Flute and then the Bassoon. In 1996 she invested in an Alto saxophone - something she had wanted to play for many years. She took up the Baritone sax about 4 years ago when it was decided that something was missing from Bluesax...a heavy bass line! Emma works full time as an Accountant and also enjoys playing Alto sax in a local Swing band.
