You’ve never heard saxophones like this! On Saturday October 15th at 7.30pm in Edington Priory Church, Marici Saxes will show you what beautiful, honey-toned and dextrous instruments the saxophone family includes.
Sarah Field, Fiona Asbury, Hannah Riches and Josie Simmons are all classically-trained, very un-stuffy saxophonists with different musical tastes. They play soprano, alto, tenor and baritone saxophones and have come together to play a huge range of music from tango (Piazzolla) to folk (Irish Suite by Josie Simmons), and ‘serious’ classical (Faure) to jazz (Richard Rodney Bennett). All the arrangements are by the quartet members.
They have just completed their first CD, recorded in Wiltshire, and are already making huge waves on the London and international music scene. This is yet another Edington Arts concert not to be missed.
Tickets are £20 front nave, £15 rear nave and £10 sides, (10% discount to Edington Angels and 18 and under come free) in advance from 01380 831256 or music@edingtonarts.org Programme information and samples of their music will be at www.edingtonarts.org.uk (Please add £2 per ticket if you buy on the door).
