From the very first moment Ben Rodenburg started playing the saxophone, his whole life changed. The saxophone became his biggest love and complete devotion to this instrument got him where he is right now : a very popular saxophone player in Holland and abroad and one of the leading saxophone players in the dancescene worldwide.

He is also a well known session musician and he worked with major artists like : Bakermat, Sam Feldt, Waylon, Alain Clark, Driftmoon, Vanillaz, Roog, Erick E and Federico Scavo.

Even though Ben is mostly known for his work with DJ’s and electronic music producers, he is also a busy studio musician. Besides playing on stage, his other passion is to create new music in his studio. Ben is known for being super social and a real stage personality. After studying at Codarts with Dick de Graaf and Simon Rigter in Rotterdam he started touring with some of the biggest artists in the Netherlands and from that moment his name was rising nationally, but also internationally. Currently Ben is touring together with one of the biggest DJ’s that is known for using saxophone Bakermat around the world, doing shows for thousands of people.
Ben is a big Vandoren enthousiast. He used to play on V16 reeds, but switched to the red Java reeds recently. On alto and tenor Ben uses the Red Java 2.5 reeds.
