Kenari Saxophone Quartet

The San Antonio Chamber Music Society is pleased to present the Kenari Saxophone Quartet in its November 14th concert. The quartet’s name is derived from the Malay word “kenari”, which may be translated as “songbird.” Expanding on the age-old idea that birds communicate through song, the Kenari Quartet seeks to exemplify this concept through concert hall performances. By not only connecting with their audiences via song, but also through physical movement, Kenari amplifies the standard concert experience with their striking visual communication and powerful stage presence. For their San Antonio concert, the Kenari Quartet will feature a broad range of music, spanning from Bach’s Goldberg Variations to contemporary compositions by Jennifer Higdon and Mischa Zupco. The concert will take place at Temple Beth-El, 211 Belknap Place, San Antonio, starting at 3:15 PM. Arrive early, as there is open seating for the concert.  Free parking is available in the Temple’s parking lot.  Tickets are $25 and may be purchased at the door or in advance on the SACMS web site (www.sacms.org).  In accordance with Temple Beth-El’s health protocol, SACMS requires all attendees (other than children) to be vaccinated and to wear a mask during the performance.
