Ah, nice! Jon Rose and his fences. Didn't know he got the Kronos Quartet to play them.
Apparently Hans Reichel once organized a daxophone quartet to be played by KQ, but they found it to be quite difficult and the whole project more or less failed.
I really hope someone will eventually master the dax as well as Reichel himself.
There's a freshly released album by Junji Hirose and Kazuhisa Uchihashi called Saxophonedaxophone. Really hope it'll utilize the instrument in an appropriately cool way.
