WIND STORY Episode III, SAXOPHONE : Landscapes & Skies

Pastoral Music for Saxophone & Piano WIND STORY Episode III, SAXOPHONE LANDSCAPES & SKIES Wind Story is back with Episode III! Following the oboe of Hyun Ae Lim and the clarinet of Adam Lee, this new chapter puts the spotlight on the saxophone, one of the most expressive and versatile voices in the wind family. Across one evening, you will hear the instrument's full range, from the bright, singing lines of the soprano saxophone to the warm, velvety tone of the alto. Each has its own colour and character, and together they paint a vivid musical canvas. Under the theme Landscapes & Skies, the programme travels through repertoire inspired by the natural world: rolling fields and open horizons, starlit skies, and the lives of the people who make their home within these landscapes. Some pieces are tender and reflective, others playful and full of light. Together they celebrate the quiet beauty of the world around us. The saxophonist is Dr Andrew Somerville, one of Scotland's most active saxophonists and educators. He is joined by collaborative pianist Helena Cheong. Between pieces, both musicians will share short introductions, giving you a closer look at the music and the stories behind it. As the autumn nights draw in, come and spend an evening with music that warms the heart. Let these pastoral sounds bring a little calm, colour and wonder to the season, and leave you with something beautiful to carry home. 📅 Wednesday 28 October, 7:00 pm 📍 Stockbridge Parish Church, Edinburgh EH3 5BN Presented by Arts & Wellness Supported by Fairfield Hearing
