Dr. Randall Hall oversees the Augustana Saxophone Studio and its quartets.

Here students develop their chamber music skills interpreting a wide range of repertoire from past masters to contemporary, cutting-edge music. The saxophone quartets rehearse regularly and perform both on and off campus. Highly skilled students may be selected to perform in a faculty-student quartet.
