Overview
Musique Royale is delighted to welcome the musicians of Proteus, an ensemble uniting four saxophonists from across Canada to St. John's Anglican Church in Lunenburg. Originally formed in Paris in 2011, the members united through their combined curiosity and love for exploring chamber music specifically written for the saxophone quartet. Come hear this saxohone quartet perform repertoire of Grieg and Bach, along with works by current composers including Daniel Bellefeuille, Thierry Escaich, and Paul Suchan!
