Distin family
The Distin family was a family of British Musicians in the 19th century who performed on saxhorns and were influential in the evolution of brass instruments in then popular music. Henri Distin, son of John Distin eventually became a celebrated brass instrument manufacturer in England and the United States.
==Distin Quintet==
John Distin and his family constituted a musical group that toured in the mid to late 19th century. They performed on Saxhorns from the company of Adolph Sax. The Distin family quintet was importantly responsible for popularizing Saxhorns,〔Our Portrait Gallery: Mr. Henri Distin, The British Bandsman, April 1889, P.154〕 and influenced further evolution of brass instruments.〔Grove, Sir George, Dictionary of Music and Musicians, The MacMillan Company, New York, New York, 1904, P.362〕 The Distins toured in the United States in addition to Europe. They accepted a 40 concert booking in New York for the 1849 season, but the venue burned to the ground while they were crossing the Atlantic. While critically hailed, their tour was plagued by illness, a Cholera epidemic that scared away the audience, and unrelated riots. A brief tour of Canada went no better.〔
