The four musicians met in Cologne where they founded the saxophone quartet SIGNUM in 2006. Inspired by the Ebony Quartet, the Artemis Quartet and Gabor Takács-Nágy, the members of SIGNUM bring forward new ideas and intriguing artistic encounters through experimental versatility in programs with inspiring soundscapes.
