Since forming in 2022, Kodachrome has performed and competed throughout the US receiving 1st Prizes in the 10th Coltman Chamber Music Competition, 10th Plowman Chamber Music Competition, and the Gold Medal at the 50th Fischoff Chamber Music Competition. In August 2023, Kodachrome was invited as an ensemble representing the U.S. to perform in the Chengdu International Sister City Music Festival held in Chengdu, China. In September 2023, Kodachrome performed and taught throughout the Midwest during the Double Gold Tour, which was sponsored by the Fischoff Chamber Music Association. Throughout the tour, Kodachrome performed at universities, colleges, soirees, junior high, and high schools in states including Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, and Michigan. Kodachrome was also a featured ensemble on WFMT as a part of the Dame Myra Hess Concert Series held in Chicago, Illinois.


Kodachrome enjoys playing all genres of music, with focus on collaborating with composers that move the instrument forward and provide enriching experiences for audiences. Every fall semester, Kodachrome participates in the annual Prisms Contemporary Music Festival held at ASU, where the quartet collaborates with contemporary composers and premieres new works written for the saxophone quartet and various chamber ensembles with the saxophone. The quartet is dedicated to sharing their music within the Greater Phoenix Area and abroad, building a strong community through music. Kodachrome has upcoming performances in Phoenix and several tours throughout the U.S. for the 2023/2024 season and is looking forward to sharing their music with many audiences. Founding members of Kodachrome are Calvin Wong on soprano saxophone, Jade Deatherage on alto saxophone, Siobhan Plouffe on tenor saxophone, and Bonson Lee on baritone saxophone.
