 As one of Europe’s leading saxophone quartets, the Ferio Saxophone Quartet consistently receives a highly enthusiastic reception from audiences and critics alike. Concert engagements have taken the ensemble to the leading festivals and concert halls across the UK, as well as on tour to New Zealand, France and Bermuda, and they can frequently be heard on BBC Radio 3 and other national and international broadcasters. Their four recordings for Chandos Records have all been met with great acclaim in the press and demonstrate the broad range and flexibility of their instruments, repertoire and collaborations.

 Since forming at the Royal College of Music in 2012, accolades and awards have included The Philharmonia/Martin Musical Ensemble Award, the Royal Overseas League’s Ensemble Competition prize and selection by both the Tunnell Trust and Park Lane Group.  They have since developed an extraordinary breadth of repertoire, allowing them to draw from an unusually wide range of musical styles and periods in their highly engaging concert programmes.

 Box Office and bar open from 6.45pm.
