Joel Love's In Memoriam was commissioned by a consortium led by the Kenari Quartet in 2014.
Kenari Quartet
Bob Eason, Soprano Saxophone
Kyle Baldwin, Alto Saxophone
Corey Dundee, Tenor Saxophone
Steven Banks, Baritone Saxophone
Formed in 2012 at the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music, the award-winning Kenari Quartet has taken pride in delivering engaging performances through creative programming and compelling stage presence. The versatility of the saxophone is integral to the quartet and the present music from a wide range of genres that is well informed by all periods of classical music as well as jazz, soul, and other genres. The group has earned top prizes at the M-Prize Chamber Music Competition, the Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition, the J.C. Arriaga Chamber Music Competition, the Plowman Chamber Music Competition, Chesapeake Bay International Chamber Music Competition, and the Coleman Chamber Music Competition.
In collaboration with Naxos Records, the quartet recently completed the recording of their first album, which will feature the music of French composers Eugéne Bozza, Alfred Desenclos, Pierre Max Dubois, Jean Françaix, Gabriel Pierné, and Florent Schmitt. The Album will be released towards the end of 2016.
I just don't understand why such wonderful music and such a wonderful performance finds so few fans ... Where are the millions of views and hundreds of thousands of likes?! I am yours forever! 💗
Thanks for your kind words!
Whoever down likes this is just stupid. One of the greatest quartet performances, and compositions for the saxophone. Look up the program notes to understand even further.
Absolutely Andrew.
This is one of my favorite pieces and it is played so well, especially the bari solo at 8:25. Very rich ensemble tone
Just saw this live tonight and it was gorgeous. Didn't even know it was being performed. Its going in my permanent rotation.
Thanks for the kind words, Joseph!
Incomparable! Incredible composition and masterful performance! Mesmerizing. I was in heaven!
Love the bari sax
I always love bari sax, how could you not! I don,t always love Soprano sax, but I sure love this soprano!
Beautiful!
Thanks so much!
Absolutely beautiful. I always come back here to watch this performance. Would love to see it on Spotify.
Still waiting on that Spotify release 🫶
Superb ensemble!
The most beautiful movement through the piece 1:02
Amazing
Thank you ❤️
fantastic
Thanks so much!
Para mí. Los músicos somos sagrados.
Muchas gracias!
Gorgeous. I wish the quartet would dedicate it to the memory of George Floyd and all others who have died similar deaths. This can be a step toward healing the hearts of the living, when memorial services cannot be held.
How hard of a piece do you reckon this was?
We spent several hours putting it together, and far longer to craft our interpretation. It's one of our favs ❤️
@@KenariQuartet Ive been listening to it for months now and I've wanted to give the Alto part a shot and a look at for the sake of self improvement. I was just curious. Very nice performance.
@@thepapavulture8322 you should send a message to the composer, Joel Love! He's a super nice guy, and he might send you a practice copy of the alto part.
@@thepapavulture8322 if you want the alto part, let me know. Happy to send it!
@@FugalVoice Id absolutely love that! Anyway I can contact you?
There's an excerpt at 2:16 that sounds like a classical piece but I can't think of the title. Does anyone know what I'm talking about or am I just making up things in my head?
