Biography
October 2007: under the name SIGMA PROJECT, four renowned saxophone soloists, firmly committed to musical creation – Andrés Gomis, Ángel Soria, Alberto Chaves, Josetxo Silguero – decided to revolutionize the landscape of Spanish chamber music… and enjoying themselves doing so.
Their commitment to renew not only the saxophone repertoire –with particular interest in symphonic works–but also the space and the staging of concerts, has aroused the interest of many composers, whose close collaboration with SIGMA PROJECT, have produced unusual premieres and recorded by labels such Deutsche Grammophon, Collegno, Verso and Sigma Records.
They have played in Europe, America and Asia.
SIGMA PROJECT performs with SELMER instruments and VANDOREM accessories.
