Grammy award-winning American saxophonist Kenny G visited Christian Brothers College High School in Town and Country on Wednesday morning, just ahead of a scheduled show in Chesterfield.

Kenny G has played the saxophone since the 1960s and has been professionally performing since the 1970s.

The CBS band played the classic Christmas song “Sleigh Ride” to welcome the saxophonist as he walked into the school’s band hall.
