Saturn Quartet

Active since: January

When is a jazz group not merely a jazz group? Perhaps, when it’s the Saturn Quartet. Made up of four extremely talented young players and composers (the term "prodigies" might not be entirely inappropriate when discussing the group’s members), who all fell together initially during their time studying that most unique and challenging American art form in the fabled Jazz Studies Program at Florida State University, the Saturn Quartet is one of the most intriguing –and notable—new entries on the international jazz scene.
