Saxofollia feat Javier Girotto

Javier Girotto, one of the most internationally acclaimed soloists and among the most versatile artists on the jazz scene, known for championing a vision of music without borders, joins forces with Quartetto Saxofollia, a chamber ensemble that is both eclectic and unique in its kind.

The performance is a perfect synthesis of the artistic journey of the five saxophonists on stage, presented to the audience through jazz standards, Brazilian choro, Argentine tango, and original compositions.

The exceptional nature and distinctive characteristics of Girotto’s musicality shine through clearly—both in his compositions, where melodies evoke deep emotion and draw from the rich musical heritage of Argentina, and in his refined skill in arranging for a saxophone quintet.

The repertoire, shaped around the unique qualities of each musician involved, is performed with meticulous precision and enriched with subtle details and nuances, moving effortlessly between delicacy and passion. These qualities are evident in both the original pieces and the arrangements of popular songs and standards.

The listener is thus drawn into a vibrant sonic world—never repetitive and often unexpected—that invites exploration of diverse sounds and styles, all reimagined with the masterful elegance and unmatched virtuosity of Javier Girotto and Saxofollia.
