Foils Quartet

Berlin / UK · soprano saxophone, trombone, bass and drums

Foils Quartet expands the longstanding Foils duo of Frank Paul Schubert on soprano saxophone and Matthias Müller on trombone with double bassist John Edwards and drummer Mark Sanders.

The quartet has played together since 2012 and is documented by Creative Sources on The Jersey Lily. The four players combine reed and brass timbres with the rapidly shifting sonic possibilities of bass and drums.

Its music alternates between finely balanced textures and powerful collective exchanges, extending the possibilities of a quartet without conventional harmonic roles.
