A  SaXmas  Story

Once upon a time, a group of saxophone-playing elves, known as the Holiday Saxtet, lived at Santa’s workshop, hidden deep within the North Pole. These elves weren’t just any musicians; they were trained at the prestigious North Pole Conservatory of Music, and their sound was so magical, some say it could make even the icicles dance! Their mission was to spread holiday cheer through blazing horn arrangements and festive performances for audiences all around the world.

 

One Christmas Eve, after a particularly joyful jam session in the snow, a red & green reindeer leapt out from behind a fir tree, knocking the Saxtet to the ground, and—oh no—breaking both the alto and tenor saxophones! With their whimsical woodwind powers, they quickly fixed the bent rods and keys. As they were about to sound a note for help, they realized the reindeer didn’t mean any harm—it just wanted to join in! The Saxtet decided to let the reindeer, now affectionately named Noel, be their official mascot.

 

Just as the group welcomed Noel, the distant jingle of sleigh bells came from the nearby pine grove. It was none other than Santa Claus, who chuckled at the sight of the red & green reindeer and said, “Well, I’ve never seen a reindeer quite like that before! But if anyone can make it fit into the holiday magic, it’s you.”

 

The Saxtet, always up for a challenge, began touring Christmas tree lots, holiday parades, and festive town squares with their new mascot, playing their hearts out for holiday crowds. It wasn’t long before they became known far and wide for their captivating performances, even inspiring Santa to book them for the Yuletide Caroling Jam each year. Noel, of course, always stole the show with his bright spirit and, occasionally, a little holiday mischief.

 

Despite their fame, the Holiday Saxtet never forgot the joy of community performances. Every year, they bring their unique blend of merriment and music to audiences across the land, proving that the holiday season truly comes alive when music and magic unite.

​

Since that night, the Saxtet has been preparing to share their magical music with holiday audiences everywhere. With plans to spread festive cheer across cities like Greensboro, Richmond, Miami, and beyond, we’re ready to bring saxophone-powered joy to your holiday event!​

Merry SaXmas!
