Digital Booklet

New Thread Quartet is an “adventurous, rule-breaking” (NewMusicBox) saxophone quartet who focuses on working closely with composers, from students to established professionals, to bring life to today’s compositional voices. Plastic Facts is the group’s debut album, highlighting their extended collaborations with composers in music that explores the intricacies of extended techniques on the saxophone and the unique sound worlds available to this ensemble, underpinned by the quartet’s virtuosic ensemble playing.
New Thread Quartet shines throughout with their skill and deft ability to make extended techniques purely expressive in this album, reaping the dividends paid through their close collaboration with each composer.
