Nationally acclaimed saxophone orchestra returns to Cottingham for fundraising concert

Following a sellout concert in 2024, a nationally acclaimed orchestra is returning to St Mary Magdalene Church in the village of Cottingham, Northamptonshire on Saturday 30 May for a fundraising concert.  

Phoenix Saxophone Orchestra, from Market Harborough, plays a varied repertoire that ably demonstrates the versatility of the saxophone. From classical music, jazz, swing and big band favourites to modern pop, film and traditional folk songs, there’s something to appeal to all musical tastes.

Nominated for a national award by the Royal Philharmonic Society, Phoenix Saxophone Orchestra features six different types of saxophone, from the tiny sopranino to the giant bass sax, and makes a truly rousing sound.

Tickets are £12 each (£6 for under 16s), to include a glass of fizz and canapes. All profits will go towards the project to install a toilet at Cottingham’s Grade I listed Parish Church.

The concert starts at 7pm and tickets are available by emailing [email protected], or calling 07594 682671.
