Join us at The Kosciuszko Foundation in NYC for the Cerus Quartet’s official New York City debut recital.

The Cerus Quartet—2025 CAG Louis and Susan Meisel Competition Winners, Fischoff Gold Medalists, and recipients of the inaugural Bohemians Artist Residency & Robert A. Levinson and Patricia S. Levinson Arts Achievement Award, administered by The New York Community Trust—presents Saxophone in Motion, a journey through fiery dances and passion that reveals the saxophone quartet’s beauty and expressive depth in classical music.

Dedicated to artist development, the Levinson Award provided Cerus with a performance wardrobe, a fully branded photo shoot with Dario Acosta, a styling consultation with Fiona Smart, an audio recording and music video shoots with Four/Ten Media, culminating in their March 18th residency performance.

Their program opens with Schubring’s Extrovert, a burst of contemporary American energy, before diving into Piazzolla’s sultry Argentinian tango Milonga del Ángel. Iturralde’s vibrant Pequeña Czarda and Perez-Villegas’ innovative Sólo el misterio bring Spanish dance to life, followed by Laganella’s Leafless Trees, a haunting soundscape. The program culminates in Mendelssohn’s String Quartet No. 6, transcribed to showcase the saxophone’s passion and dynamic versatility in the classical canon.
