Xavier Sabata & Kebyart
I Am An Unusual Thing

Xavier Sabata fotografiert von Michal Novak

Boundaries of all kinds blur in this concert: countertenor Xavier Sabata and the Kebyart Saxophone Quartet create a unique synthesis of sound in which voice and instruments merge seamlessly. For this they go far beyond the classical countertenor repertoire of George Frideric Handel, Henry Purcell and Co and present a varied program from all music-historical epochs and genres.
