Visit the library for a musical performance!

PaxSax is a quartet of professional saxophone musicians (ranging from soprano to baritone and bass sax), who will present an hour-long concert. Their music covers a wide range of genres, from ragtime, Americana, show tunes, swing, jazz, to contemporary composers. During their performance they’ll present a little background on each composer and composition and include lots of conversation with the audience!

This program is supported in part by a grant from the Springfield Cultural Council, a local agency of the Massachusetts Cultural Council.
