***
The concert program “Anthology” will immerse listeners in music for a saxophone quartet. The world’s best compositions, including those previously unperformed in Belarus, which have become the basis of the repertoire throughout the world, will reveal all the possibilities of the sound of instruments.
In the new program, the SAXAS saxophone quartet will once again present many premieres to our listeners. The first part will consist entirely of premiere performances: excellent examples of French music for saxophone quartet – works by Alfred Desanclos and Jean Français – will take listeners through the entire spectrum of feelings, emotions and moods, and the famous Adagio by Samuel Barber will be performed for the first time in our arrangement for saxophone. The second part will immerse the audience in the world of opera and dance, but will not do without premieres. David Salleras exclusively provided the sheet music of his new work, and quartet member Viktor Timofeev continues to enrich the national repertoire with his own music.
This evening we are preparing to go through a musical anthology for a saxophone quartet!
