Todd Rewoldt

A former sponsored amateur skateboarder and punk bassist, Todd discovered the saxophone at the age of 12. Since graduating from the Eastman School of Music in 2001, Todd has established himself as a vital member of the modern music community. Equally comfortable performing the music of Glazunov, Stockhausen, or Avant-Pop, his hundreds of performances have taken him throughout the United States and to important concert venues in Sweden, Germany, Italy, Mexico, Japan, Taiwan, Canada, Ireland, and Australia. As a solo saxophonist and founding member of the internationally acclaimed SWARMIUS trio, critics have characterized his performances as “first-rate,” “virtuosic,” and “displaying amazing technique.” Dr. Rewoldt is frequently invited to perform at numerous international music festivals, including the Society for Electro-Acoustic Music in Sweden, Mexican Center for Music and Sonic Arts, New West Electro-Acoustic Music Organization, World Saxophone Congress, La Jolla SummerFest, Ussachevsky Memorial Festival, and SEAMUS. Locally, Todd is an on-call saxophonist with the San Diego Symphony, Orchestra Nova, and principal saxophonist with the San Diego Winds. His recording credits include Nonesuch Records, Warner Bros., Aleppo, and live performances on WTTW-Chicago with the New Arts Jazz Quintet.
