Experience inspirational performances by young classical music artists from the Royal College of Music. Perfect for a relaxed Sunday morning!
The Sirocco Saxophone Quartet was formed at the Royal College of Music in 2006 where its members studied saxophone with Kyle Horch and chamber music with Martin Robertson.
They went on to study with world renowned professors in Paris, Cologne, The Hague and Chicago. The quartet is a passionate advocate of repertoire specifically written for Saxophone and performs a wide variety of original works in addition to transcriptions. They particularly enjoy working directly with composers and have collaborated with Paul Patterson and Israeli composer Tzvi Avni.
The quartet gives regular recitals in London and elsewhere in the UK and Germany. Recent concerts include appearances at St Martin-in-the-Fields, the Barbican Centre, St James Piccadilly, and the City Showcase Festival. Sirocco gave a critically acclaimed recital at the Purcell Room during the 2009 Park Lane Group New Year Series, and were described as 'A hugely talented foursome' (The Observer), and as possessing 'finesse and flair' (The Times). Sirocco gave their Wigmore Hall debut in the Monday Platform in February 2010.
