Saxofollia Saxophone Quartet is one of Italy's best known and most popular chamber music ensembles. First prize-winner at 8 national and international competitions, the group has been together since 1993, playing at major events such as Concerti in Campidoglio, Casa del Jazz (Rome), XVII Festival Internazionale del Saxofono (Ascoli Piceno), Teatro Binario 7 (Monza), Teatro Rossini (Pesaro), Teatro U. Giordano (Foggia), Asolo Musica (Treviso), Capri Inn Jazz (Napoli), Vittoria Jazz Festival (Ragusa), 14th World Saxophone Congress (Ljubliana). Saxofollia's members have been playing for years with top symphony orchestras such as La Fenice (Venice), Filarmonica della Scala (Milan), Arena (Verona), Teatro dell’Opera (Rome) and Orchestra della Svizzera Italiana. Versatility and a constant seek for new musical genres are among the best qualities of this formation, which have been widely expressed in the different projects the group has brought on the stage. Saxofollia plays with mastery and ease not only classical repertoire, such as baroque or opera, but also jazz music, moving from swing to be-bop up to modern jazz. All the pieces played by Saxofollia are compositions and original arrangements specially created to highlight the different talents of each single musician. Saxofollia has recorded 9 CDs. Some of their tracks have recently entered the "iTunes Top 100 Chart" of the most popular pieces in countries such as U.S.A, Canada and Japan.
