The Tiptons Sax Quartet, previously known as The Billy Tipton Memorial Saxophone Quartet, is a jazz saxophone quartet from Seattle, Washington. The ensemble consists of five members (the fifth member being the quartet's drummer and percussionist). The name of the quartet was inspired by Billy Tipton, a jazz pianist and saxophonist, who upon his death was revealed to be anatomically female. Formed in 1988, they have toured frequently in North America and Europe, collaborated with Pat Graney Dance Company, taught workshops on improvisation and composition, and have recorded eight CDs.

dbo:abstract
  • The Tiptons Sax Quartet ist ein amerikanisches Saxophonquartett des Modern Jazz, das (vom zusätzlichen Schlagzeuger abgesehen) ausnahmslos mit Frauen besetzt ist (zunächst The Billy Tipton Memorial Saxophone Quartet). 1989 wurde das Billy Tipton Memorial Saxophone Quartet in Seattle gegründet. Der Name der Gruppe nimmt Bezug auf Billy Tipton, die nur als Mann eine Jazzkarriere machen konnte. Die Band tourt regelmäßig in Nordamerika und Europa, hat zehn Alben aufgenommen und mit der Pat Graney Dance Company gearbeitet. Wolf Kampmann zufolge ist das Ensemble als „die weibliche Alternative zum Muskeljazz des World Saxophone Quartet“ entstanden. (de)
