Saxtet Publications (SXP) was established in 1990 by Nigel Wood.

SXP emerged from Saxtet, a saxophone quartet first established in 1985 at the Birmingham Conservatoire. Initially, all SXP’s works were written by Saxtet members, but quickly grew to include arrangements and original compositions by many other composers from all around the world, as well as works for clarinet, flute & oboe.

In 2013 Nigel handed over the SXP reins to Tom Bruton, who had worked for SXP since 2001.

   

The catalogue now contains over 500 works, with many appearing on the saxophone, clarinet & flute syllabi of  leading music examining boards including ABRSM and Trinity College London.

SXP also takes active steps to promote excellence; promoting and sponsoring saxophonists and saxophone ensembles throughout the UK and abroad.

With a strong artistic and visionary connection with Saxtet Publications, I (Victoria Samek)  and Tom Bruton have  agreed an exciting development that promises significant benefits for Clarinet & Saxophone Classics Publications (CSCP).  As of April 2025 Saxtet Publication will incorporate Clarinet & Saxophone Classics Publications.  I will continue as artistic director in developing the CSCP catalogue with Samek Music continuing to present the expanding catalogue of works.
