Rusty Toots is the alter-ego of Russell Ward - a musician, musical director, composer, arranger and music educator from Victoria, Australia.  Russell is an experienced session musician on saxophone, clarinet, flute and keyboards, with playing experiences including several years as a full-time member of the Royal Australian Navy Band, and as a backing musician to entertainers including Hugh Jackman, Denise Drysdale, Frankie J Holden Denis Walter and Patti Newton.  Essentially, he earns his living by making sounds from blowing air through a bunch of tubes with holes in them, while teaching and encouraging others to do likewise. 

Rusty Toots produces sheet music for serious musicians who are serious about not taking themselves too seriously.  Fun and quirky compositions and arrangements are available in a range of genres, levels and ensembles, including Big Band, Concert Band and Saxophone Quartet
