WHO: THE MANA SAXOPHONE QUARTET
Michael Hernandez, soprano; Michael Mortarotti, alto
Eric Barreto-Maymi, tenor; Thomas Giles, baritone
Since its inception in 2007, this award- winning ensemble has performed all over the country premiering new works and giving renewed life and energy to many original masterworks. While each player is an accomplished soloist, their sensitive work as a chamber group is exquisite. MANA offers a vivid reimagining of the saxophone’s 19th century heritage – a refined aesthetic characterized by intrinsic warmth, dynamic range and versatility.
