Formed in 2012 at the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music, the award-winning Kenari Quartet has taken pride in delivering engaging performances through creative programming and compelling stage presence. The versatility of the saxophone is integral to the quartet and the present music from a wide range of genres that is well informed by all periods of classical music as well as jazz, soul, and other genres. The group has earned top prizes at the M-Prize Chamber Music Competition, the Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition, the J.C. Arriaga Chamber Music Competition, the Plowman Chamber Music Competition, Chesapeake Bay International Chamber Music Competition, and the Coleman Chamber Music Competition.
In collaboration with Naxos Records, the quartet recently completed the recording of their first album, which will feature the music of French composers Eugéne Bozza, Alfred Desenclos, Pierre Max Dubois, Jean Françaix, Gabriel Pierné, and Florent Schmitt. The Album will be released towards the end of 2016.

[@thewitt55]

I'm trying to imagine what the notations look like on the page for the percussive feet. Better coordination than I could've ever had. Nice job guys!!!

[@shirleymeyerblankenship8345]

I love this!. It is playful and dramatic at the same time. The stomping percussion is a delightful surprise. Thank you.

Thank you for sharing this stunning performance!

[@franciscochapa551]

My very good friends Paul, Isaiah, and Vicente played this. They did an amazing job. Their performance led me to this video and it just blew me away. Bravo, Bravo!

Where did y'all find the music?

[@dmack2003]

@@jadenmeadows6352 I am the arranger. This piece should absolutely not be in circulation. It is unacceptable that people have distributed the sheet music for 20 years against the wishes of the original composer and I have never received ANY COMPENSATION from any of the groups who have played this and decided they had the right to give away my work.

[@richardjchandler]

This composition, "Memory from Nepomuk's Dances by Marcelo Zarvos, arr. Darius Mackie," brilliantly performed by the Kenari Quartet, enthralls and delights! What a captivating performance!

[@Moi_Hernandez]

Great!

[@themoistcactus]

It seems like the stomping in itself makes the piece more difficult but it was really cool! Great job!

[@Steveiegaming]

Believe me, it does. Our quartet struggled so hard with it.

[@Bob-hv6dy]

@@Steveiegaming how did you get the music? Been looking for it for a while to play with my ensemble!

[@Steveiegaming]

@@Bob-hv6dy I had connections to a teacher that had it. I might see about trying to get the score some day, but seeing as how exclusively the piece is circulated, I'm not hopeful :/

[@Bob-hv6dy]

[@Boomer.Roberts]

Hey! LOVE this piece! When did you guys get a different alto player? Admittedly I haven't really followed your quartet closely since seeing the 2013 video of this piece.

[@ericbenitez4082]

Boomer Roberts I know the alto player personally, I know he’s been with the group since at least 2014, but possible before. I think the other alto player was only temporary.

[@Boomer.Roberts]

Eric Benitez ah interesting, thanks for the info!
