Synchrony Quartet is a Chicago-based saxophone quartet dedicated to the performance of contemporary music and to fostering meaningful collaboration between performers, composers, and local communities. Formed from members of Taimur Sullivan’s studio, the ensemble has quickly gained national recognition, having been named a finalist in the Chesapeake International Chamber Music Competition, the MTNA Young Artist Competition, and the North American Saxophone Alliance Chamber Music Competition, with competitions scheduled for later this year. Committed to expanding the saxophone quartet repertoire, SQ is currently premiering four new works including one by Chicago based composer Stacy Garrop.
