CHAMBER MUSIC
Collaborating and learning from others in chamber ensembles is Alicia’s passion, especially making multiple voices sound as one. Performing in the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire Saxophone Octet at the World Saxophone Congress 2018 in Croatia was a privilege. Alicia has been an active member of the Saxophone department, creating up-and-coming Eastside Quartet along with professional Tillen Saxophone Quartet.
