Event Details
An infectious saxophone craze swept across post war USA. The bubbling optimism of the time combined with the effect of virtuosi such as Rudy Wiedoeft sparked a mania; everyone wanted to play the sax. It was this era that transformed the image of the sax from novelty gimmick to king of cool. Join award-winning saxophonist Nicholas Russoniello and the Golden Age Quartet as they rekindle the sound spectrum of George Gershwin, Charlie Chaplin and Erwin Schulhoff with gut strings and an original 1920s C melody saxophone.
