The
Spiral Saxophone Quartet was established in 1996 while its founder members
were studying at Trinity College of Music in London.
Since
then, they have variously studied at the Royal Northern College of Music and
the Guildhall School of Music & Drama.
The
quartet has played at a number of London’s top venues including the Queen
Elizabeth Hall, the BBC Radio Theatre and the Wigmore Hall. Their repertoire
includes many jazz standards as well as a number of popular tunes but they
are most at home with contemporary saxophone music that makes the most of
the unique sounds and qualities of a saxophone quartet.
The
quartet regularly perform at a wide variety of concerts and engagements,
ranging from evening recitals to workshops and educational events throughout
the UK. They also direct and perform with the Barnet Saxophone Ensemble whom
they coach and have built up to be one of the largest and most active groups
of young saxophonists in the country. |
