Little Symphony Sax Quartet is back at Inverlochy House looking to once again get the lovely art filled walls there resonating beautifully with warm, sonorous sounds.

Their pot-pourri of saxophones, clarinets, bassoon and trombone will take a collective stroll through jazz tinged original compositions that have been inspired by such life experiences as low level synaesthesia, the film Blazing Saddles and meditation. Their set will be finished off with a new game of theirs called “Guess that Toon!”, where the modern day obsession of covering old material is turned somewhat on its head.

Join Little Symphony at Inverlochy House on Sunday 25th of August, they never disappoint!

Little Symphony Sax Quartet is:

Oscar Laven – Tenor Sax/Bassoon
Andre Paris – Alto Sax/Clarinet

Kaito Walley – Trombone

Blair Latham – Tenor Sax/Bass Clarinet
