Event Details
'Sax Journey through France, Japan, Finland & Australia'
A unique recital program showcasing the saxophone's diverse range of colouristic and special sound effects: bird-like sounds in Tanaka's Night Bird; Virtaperko's mesmerising and intense Crimes of the Past; and two of Katia's own compositions, First Light, depicting the gradual rising of the sun, and her very fast, technical showpiece, Turkish Dance (arrangement for soprano saxophone and piano).
