  • Description

    To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the legendary Quatuor Habanera, Swiss-Slovenian saxophonist Maja Lisac Barroso presented the ensemble with an immense but fascinating challenge. To rehearse a work that is seen as the epitome of a chamber music work for strings: Schubert's famous String Quintet D 956. The artist spent two years listening to Schubert's masterpiece every day, researching the work and its genesis, before arranging it for five saxophones. The result? Something seemingly impossible!
