About
On Friday, January 15, 2027, the Pavillon de la Sirène hosts the saxophone quartet Opus 333 for an evening dedicated to the music of J.S. Bach. Established in 2009, this unique ensemble focuses on chamber music, characterized by its distinct sonic identity and commitment to innovative transcriptions. Invited by the Quatuor Zahir, the group performs in the heart of the 14th arrondissement. This concert is fully accessible to all, including wheelchair users, visually impaired guests, and those with cognitive disabilities, with sign language interpretation provided during the performance.
United by a deep friendship, four saxhorn players founded Opus333 in 2009 to explore chamber music within a unique quartet... a Saxhorn quartet! At the heart of their approach, transcriptions, original creations, curiosity, and high standards shape a singular sound identity. For their first concert at La Sirène, a venue with such a long history for wind instruments, they are happy to present, alongside the Quatuor Zahir, their new program dedicated to J.S. Bach.
Our take on this event
Opus 333 performs at the Pavillon de la Sirène on January 15, 2027, from 20:00 to 21:15. This quartet of saxhorn players, who have performed together since 2009, will showcase a new program exclusively featuring the works of J.S. Bach. By blending original creations with bold arrangements, the ensemble continues to push the boundaries of chamber music.
The performance takes place at the invitation of the Quatuor Zahir, a resident ensemble at the venue. Given the Pavillon de la Sirène's long history with wind instruments, it serves as the perfect setting for this brass-focused event. Tickets are available at a price range between 5 and 12 euros.
Accessibility is a priority for this event. The venue is equipped to welcome wheelchair users and provides specific support for visually impaired attendees and individuals with cognitive disabilities. Additionally, the concert features sign language interpretation, ensuring that the musical experience is inclusive for every member of the audience.
