John Bevan (musician)
John Bevan (born 3 August 1938) is an English clarinetist, saxophonist, conductor and orchestra leader who emigrated from England to Norway in 1969. Bevan now lives in Nesodden, Akershus, Norway.
John Bevan was born in Catshill, England, and showed interest for music at the early age of eight years old, starting on the violin at Catshill Junior school. After a 3-year period, his interests were directed to the clarinet. At 12 years old, he was accepted as a part-time student at the Birmingham School of Music. He was fortunate to have received professional tuition from members of both Birmingham Symphony Orchestra (James Mathewson) and BBC Light Orchestra (Michael Saxton). His initial interests were directed towards classical music, and he was very active with several local amateur orchestras and also a regular feature in the theatre pit orchestras in the Birmingham area.
==Achievements==
At the age of 14, John was an original member of the newly formed Worcestershire County Youth Orchestra under the batons of Eric Holt and Arther Benoy. At the age of 19 he was performed solo with the orchestra ''Concertino for Clarinet and Strings'' by Gorden Jacob at Kidderminster Town Hall. During this period, John also showed interest in the lighter side of music; he purchased his first alto saxophone at the age of 16. This was unique as it was an instrument made with plastic by the name of Grafton Acrylic. This was soon traded in after a 2-year period for the best instrument on the market at the time – a Selmer Mark VI Alto which he still owns. This instrument is now rated as the Stradivarius of saxophones by experienced players. A Dearmann baritone saxophone was also added to his collection of instruments which opened the market for him in many big bands of the time.
