Scott Robinson (born April 27, 1959) is an American jazz multi-instrumentalist. Robinson is best known for his work on multiple saxophones, but he has also performed on clarinet, alto clarinet, flute, trumpet, sarrusophone, and other, more obscure instruments.

The son of a piano teacher and National Geographic book editor,[1] Robinson graduated from the Berklee College of Music in 1981. The next year, he joined the college's staff, becoming its youngest faculty member.[2]

Robinson has appeared on more than 275 LP and CD releases, including 20 under his leadership,[3] with musicians Frank Wess,[2] Roscoe Mitchell, Ruby Braff, Joe Lovano, Ron Carter, Paquito D'Rivera, David Bowie, Maria Schneider, Rufus Reid,[3] Buck Clayton, and the Orchestra of St. Luke's.[1] Four of these recordings won a Grammy Award.[3] He has received four fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts.[1]

Throughout his career, Robinson has worked to keep unusual and obscure instruments in the public view. For example, he has recorded an album featuring the C-melody saxophone and performs with the ophicleide. He also owns and records with a vintage contrabass saxophone so rare that fewer than twenty in playable condition are known to exist.[3]

Scott will be accompanied by the Fullerton Jazz Orchestra, a big band led by Bill Cunliffe. The Cal State Jazz Singers, conducted by Teryn Re will also perform. Concert is at 8pm on Friday Dec 6 at CSUF’s Meng Concert Hall.
