Saxofonist

There are countless string quartets—both ensembles and works—but saxophone quartets? With this lineup, the MAAT Saxophone Quartet is making a name for itself. As the European Concert Hall Organization's "Rising Star," they will tour throughout Europe in the 2025/26 season. After eight sold-out children's concerts in 2024, they will also return to the Elbphilharmonie with a program that showcases the quartet's diversity, with arrangements ranging from string quartets to piano concertos.

Size Saxophone Quartet

Elbphilharmonie Hamburg

The 2026/2027 season ends with a concert where memory, myth and masterpieces meet. Under the direction of Anja Bilhmaier, the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra begins with Olly Wilson's Shango Memory – a pulsating and spiritual piece that honours the Yoruba thunder god Shango. Then, four of the orchestra's own horn soloists step forward in Schumann's jubilant concert piece for four horns, combining romantic warmth with impressive virtuosity. The concert ends with Brahms's Piano Quartet in G minor, but in Arnold Schönberg's colourful orchestration, lifting the chamber music intensity to symphonic heights. A musical journey where tradition, spirituality and orchestral strength interact.
