“Thanks again for an afternoon of interesting facts and anecdotes as well as wonderful music”
“You put together such a varied and enjoyable performance, interspersed with delightful snippets of information which entertained and educated us”
“You all played with care and sensitivity, the instruments blended beautifully and I couldn’t believe how many different genres of music suit the instrument. Hope to see you all back here again one day.”
“What a wonderful morning of music you gave us.. My members were really impressed by the range of music that you performed and the precision and subtlety of the group’s playing. I think that it was a wake-up call to those who did not know a saxophone quartet and I am sure that they would like to hear you again in due course”
“.. great to hear your lovely music”
“Very many thanks again to the talented saxophonists in iSax who gave us a splendid evening of kaleidoscopic music demonstrating the virtuosity of both the instrument and the musicians. The numbers for your concert certainly shows that your fame has spread far and wide – and so it should!”
“Just to let you know how music I enjoyed the concert yesterday and how impressed I was with iSax. I thought the format worked really well and David’s compering made it very entertaining and informative. The range of music was great and each piece sounded very fresh because of the contrasts. The early music sounded fabulous with this sax combination. I thoroughly enjoyed all of the pieces and you all seemed to be enjoying them too.”
“I have never been drawn to the saxophone before but this concert has really changed that. I spoke with several friends during the interval and they all felt the same, as well as appreciating the quality and precision of playing”
“To Dave and iSax. Thank you so much for making my birthday special. The music was great and just right. I had a lovely time.”
“The November concert was given by iSax Saxophone Quartet led by our great friend David James. The quartet played music from the middle ages to the present day, ably introduced by David and illustrating the enormous range of this instrument invented by Adolph Sax in the 19th century. This concert was both educational and extremely entertaining and was much appreciated by an audience of 83.”
