Imagine listening to Continuum Sax perform in a cosy National Trust hotel. Now imagine further that they are recreating the work of iconic Sydney saxophone quartet the Original Otto Orchestra. Low frequency bass sax rumbles at no extra cost. Vague beads of sweat formed through sinuous melody, strange aquatic chords, and a prehensile grip on the transitory. Then add beer. Something along those lines ..............

Continuum Sax present the prerecorded sound worlds of Dutch composer Jacob Ter Veldhuis’ music for saxophone and boombox. Veldhuis' music sides with the underdog and the darker regions of life. Billie Holiday, prison inmates, Times Square Evangelists, and Chet Baker provide speech patterns used to shape the saxophones phraseology. The tonality of the saxophone quartet vies for prominence with the gnashing music of the boombox in this rhythmically assertive, architecturally exciting, and emotionally engaging music.
