A saxophone quartet is a musical ensemble composed of four saxophones, typically soprano, alto, tenor and baritone saxophones
Composer Jean-Baptiste Singelee had written works for four saxophones in the 19th century.
These included Allegro de concert, and Grand Quatuor Concertant en 3 Parties.
In 1878, the Gilmour Band featured a quartet of saxophones which included Edouard Lefèbre, a soloist in the band.
Lefèbre went on to form his own saxophone quartet in 1905 with a repertoire of transcriptions.
