CAMMAC Music Centre
Winners of two Echo-Klassik prizes, “Alliage” is a most charming alloy of four saxophones and a piano.
Unique to this ensemble is their ability to create the illusion of a large orchestra. The melodic and expressive-sounding saxophones combine with the orchestral fullness of a piano to create a listening experience of the highest quality. The quintet was founded by Quebec native Daniel Gauthier, currently the only professor for classical saxophone in Germany (Hochschule für Musik, Cologne) and the ensemble‘s leader and soprano. He is joined by three of today’s best soloists on saxophone: Miguel Valles Mateu, alto; Simon Hamrath, tenor; and Sebastian Pottmeier, baritone. The quintet is completed by the Korean pianist Jang Eun Bae, an experienced and well-versed chamber musician. Presented in partnership with the Music and Beyond Festival.
