Nexas Quartet - Lane Cove Music Club

Lane Cove Mowbray Anglican Church, 19 Rosenthal Ave, Lane Cove

Travel to the city of Paris of the 1920s with Nexas (Saxophone) Quartet as they reveal the profound influence this vibrant city had on the musical style and creative approach of George Gershwin. In particular, Gershwin was drawn to the jazz-infused rhythms and exotic harmonies of French music, which he seamlessly incorporated into his own compositions. The syncopated rhythms and lush orchestrations of pieces like “An American in Paris” reflect Gershwin’s fascination with the energy and vitality of the city.
