~Nois Quartet

Shenandoah New Music

Take your preconceptions of ‘noise’ and toss them out the window. Equal parts “fiendishly good and fiendishly goofy” (Chicago Tribune), ~Nois Quartet is a “prolific, charismatic young ensemble that is swiftly becoming the American saxophone quartet du jour” (Musical America). At the core of ~Nois’ ethos is a fierce dedication to the commissioning of living composers, leading to more than 120 world premieres. Founded in 2016, this award-winning Chicago-based ensemble is dedicated to championing new music for saxophone and building community through innovative, inclusive and exceptional musical experiences.
