Performer Details

Performer Bio Synopsis

The Cedar Ridge High School Saxophone Choir is composed of saxophonists from all four concert bands. In its founding year, all 17 saxophonists at Cedar Ridge were in the ensemble. The chamber group meets two to four times a week from November to March. In addition to the large ensemble, the group is also broken into trios, quartets, or octets which rehearse separately in order to maximize the chamber music experience.
