Trinity Cathedral Music Series: JitaZax

Having recently wrapped up an international tour beginning in China and ending at the World Saxophone Congress in Croatia, JitaZax will give their U.S. debut at Trinity Cathedral! The program will include newly commissioned works by renowned California composers Cornelius Boots and Derek Keller.

Over the last year, JitaZax has been collaborating with local, regional, and international composers to foster their own personalized repertoire. On a program that spans music of four centuries and six countries, they will give the U.S. premiere of Liminal Spaces by Sacramento’s award-winning composer, Derek Keller. The same work received its world premiere when JitaZax performed at the elite World Saxophone Congress in Zagreb. Leading up to their dates in Croatia, Wenjun and Bender toured extensively in China, performing concerts and delivering master classes in Hangzhou, Zhenzhou, Shaoxing, Hai’an, Beijing, Fangshan, Shijiazhuang, and Chengdu.
