Meet the AYO Episode 9 | Alice Morgan, saxophonist, and James Nightingale, AYO tutor

Australian Youth Orchestra

Benjamin Britten's 'Sinfonia da requiem' and Rachmaninov's 'Symphonic Dances' have one thing in common – they both feature a saxophonist! Alice Morgan joins AYO's woodwind section to perform these pieces at our upcoming concerts, and we caught up with Alice and her tutor James Nightingale to hear their thoughts on the use of saxophone in an orchestral setting. We'd like to acknowledge we’ve recorded this podcast on the traditional lands of the Eora Nations and pay our respects to Elders both past, present and future.
