My uncle Graham Lyons, who has died aged 87, was a jazz and classical musician, composer and arranger.
In 1967 he released a self-penned single, Jazz Bassoon, on Decibel Records, on which he played bassoon, clarinet, saxophone and piano. Later he was a member of various musical outfits, including the Alan Tew Orchestra, the Herman Wilson Chamber Group and the New Paul Whiteman Orchestra. In 1975 he founded the Classical Woodwind Quartet, performing 17th- and 18th-century music.
