Island Within

Dokwerk Saxophone Quartet

Island Within is a journey through sound and emotion, performed by four saxophonists from four corners of the world. From a Taiwanese folk tune to Widmann’s Capricci, the sweeping waves of Mendelssohn’s Hebrides, and the hypnotic pulse of Philip Glass — it’s about solitude, remembering where you come from, discovering more of yourself, and slowly finding your way back — to others, and to yourself.

Meet the Dokwerk Saxophone Quartet — “an outstanding young ensemble worth following,” praised by Dutch violinist Maria Milstein. Lisa, Jen-Hong, Ileana, and Pedro blend their diverse backgrounds into a fresh, bold take on classical music. They were the students from the Conservatorium van Amsterdam under the guidance of Dutch saxophone legend Arno Bornkamp.

They’re not just playing — they’re redefining what classical saxophone can be. Come see where it takes you.
