This reminds me of a recent concert I attended by the National Saxophone Choir of Great Britain, where musicians came from all over the country to demonstrate their skills and provide a delightful balance over a range of nine different saxophones, from the lowly contrabass (and tubax) to the ultra high Soprillo. They were able to play individual musical pieces relevant to their instrument, or combine with one or more of the others to provide a different focus of their interpretation of the musical score or they could combine all together to produce a very effective and powerful sound, which demanded attention from even the deafest of ears! I have to admit I did not expect too much from the evening but this group of players, who did not have much practice time because of their different addresses, made me feel that even a relatively small group of dedicated people can produce a strong message.
