St. Paul’s United Methodist Church’s Harmony in the Hills Concert Series will present the North Star Saxophone Quartet on Wednesday, August 20, at 7:00 p.m. at 620 Romeo Street, Rochester, MI.
The concert will take place in the Garden of Hope, in front of the church, weather permitting. Attendees are encouraged to bring a blanket or folding chair for the outdoor performance. In the event of inclement weather, the concert will be held inside the church. Admission is free.
The North Star Saxophone Quartet features soprano, alto, tenor, and baritone saxophones in a powerful tour de force. North Star is both an international and multi-state ensemble, with members from Michigan, Ohio, and Windsor, Ontario. All members are members of the American Federation of Musicians (AFM).
Unlike other saxophone ensembles, which specialize in one musical genre, the North Star Quartet performs all genres of Western music, and a few non-Western as well, sometimes in the same program. Typical concerts include: jazz, classical, ragtime, pop, baroque, folk, blues, and music from television and movie soundtracks.
Harmony in the Hills Concert Series is offered by St. Paul’s United Methodist Church and features the finest local and international talent in classical, jazz, and gospel music. Concerts are held throughout the year on various days and at different times to allow more patrons the opportunity to attend. Ticket costs are nominal and sometimes a request for a donation is the fee to enter.
Harmony in the Hills is under the artistic direction of Director of Music Dr. Seung Hee Cho.
