The world-renowned Amstel Saxophone Quartet will offer a free master class for saxophonists at 3:00 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 1, at the First Presbyterian Church. Priority will be given to advanced students, but saxophonists at all levels can benefit, and there may be time to coach beginners. Emphasis is on classical and avant-garde technique rather than jazz. Those desiring to be coached should bring their instruments and some music. The public is welcome to audit.
At about 4:30, the Amstel will begin an open rehearsal for the benefit of the master class participants of the pieces they have programmed for their Chamber Music Yellow Springs concert at the church at 7:30 p.m. The program will include works by Haydn, Ravel, Tan Dun, Phillip Glass and Tristan Keuris. Student tickets at the door are $6.00.
These events are sponsored by Chamber Music Yellow Springs with the assistance of WSU saxophone professor Shelley Jagow. For further information, phone Jeff Huntington at (937) 767-7001.
