"Sometimes, at nights, an hour occurs, when the plain seems about to tell you something. But it never does, though perhaps it repeats this continuously, but we never understand it; maybe we do, but it is untranslatable like music…" 
from Fictions by Jorge Luis Borges

Sigma Waves / Hèctor Parra

"I arrived in Mexico city and was whisked off to a concert at El Colegio Nacional. It was the spanish quartet of 4 saxophones Sigma Project playing the world premiere of Alberto Posadas’s new three piece cycle 'Poética del Laberinto'. This was wonderful opportunity to catch up, with the magnificently accurate, inventive and awe inspiring performance by the spaniards. I thought this sort of precision could come only from a quartet of strings". 
Irvine Arditti (june, 2017)

SIGMA PROJECT www.sigmaproject.es is the New Saxophone in Europe, is more than a saxophone quartet. It is the realization of a wish came true, an essential vehicle for instrumental music in the 21st century. Just as the string quartet was the instrument par excellence for art music in past centuries, SIGMA Project claims this role in the 21st century for the saxophone quartet.
During its already long career, SIGMA Project has performed more than 150 concerts across half the world – not only in auditoriums in the United States, Argentina (Teatro Colón), Mexico (Palacio de Bellas Artes), Chile, Germany, Scotland, France, Italy, Poland and Romania but also in festivals such as the Festival Internacional Cervantino in Guanajuato, the Hannöversche Gessellschaf für Neue Musik, the Gare du Nord in Basel, the ENSEMS in Valencia, the Donostia-San Sebastían Musical Fortnight, the Música(s) Contemporánea(s) in the Teatro Central of Seville, the Temporadas of the CNDM, the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía and Operadhoy-Musicadhoy in Madrid, among others.
SIGMA Project has its own record label, Sigmarecords, and has edited the CD Utopías: New Music for Saxophone Quartet and the DVD The Music for saxophone by Félix Ibarrondo. Additionally, they have recorded for WERGO (Alberto Posadas's 'Poetics of the Labyrinth' cycle), he BBVA Foundation (José Manuel López López and Gerardo Gombau monographs), Orpheus Classical (María Eugenia Luc monograph), Casa Velázquez-Académie de France in Madrid (Víctor Ibarra monograph) and, invited by the German Foundation Ernst Von Siemens Musikstiftung and with the label Col Legno, the Simone Movio monograph.
