The Raschèr Saxophone Quartet is a professional ensemble of four saxophonists which performs classical and modern music. Like most saxophone quartets, the RSQ features one player on each of the four most common sizes of saxophone: soprano, alto, tenor, and baritone. The quartet was founded in the United States in 1969 by prominent classical saxophonist Sigurd Raschèr and his daughter, Carina (Karin). Some years later the quartet relocated to Germany and has been based there ever since. The Quartet has appeared at major concert halls in Europe and the United States, including Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center in New York City, the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., Opera Bastille Paris, Royal Festival Hall in London, Philharmonie Cologne, Concertgebouw, Schauspielhaus Berlin, Berliner Philharmonie, Musikverein Vienna, Tonhalle Zürich The quartet has received strong reviews and was acclaimed as the "Uncrowned Kings of the Saxophone" by the Wiener Zeitung. ==Personnel== *Linda Bangs-Urban, baritone saxophone, 1969–1992 *Kenneth Coon, baritone saxophone, 1992–present *John-Edward Kelly, alto saxophone, 1981–1991 *Christine Rall, soprano saxophone, 2002–present *Carina Raschèr, soprano saxophone, 1969 until 2002 *Sigurd Raschèr, alto saxophone, 1969 until 1980 *Elliot Riley, alto saxophone, 2001–present *Bruce Weinberger, tenor saxophone, 1969–2014 *Harry Kinross White, alto saxophone, 1990–2001 *Andreas van Zoelen, tenor saxophone, 2014-present 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Raschèr Saxophone Quartet」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
