Sextet Quartet
Biography
Sextet Quartet is a group of young musicians who are rapidly making a name for themselves on the contemporary jazz scene.
Formed in 2023, the quartet stands out for its shared musical vision and constant search for an original sound, capable of blending the richness of jazz tradition with modern influences. The name, chosen with irony, reflects the creative and playful spirit of the band, which combines technical precision and expressive freedom in a cohesive and ambitious project.
The group's music is characterised by refined arrangements, adventurous improvisations and a surprising unity of sound, the result of a continuous dialogue between the different artistic personalities. Each member brings with them a range of experiences and influences, which blend together in compositions that balance complexity and immediacy, technique and spontaneity. The result is an engaging musical experience, in which passion and research merge into a unique and recognisable style.
During their young career, the Sextet Quartet has already had the opportunity to perform in numerous prestigious contexts, participating in festivals and competitions that represent true landmarks for Italian and European jazz. Among their most significant experiences are performances at the Umbria Jazz Contest (Perugia), Premio delle Arti 2023 (Palermo), Onyx Jazz Contest (Matera), the Abbazie Jazz Contest (Teano) and Premio Isio Saba (Cagliari).
In November 2025, the quartet won the Premio Nazionale delle Arti – Jazz Section (Parma), where it received unanimous acclaim from both the public and critics, distinguishing itself for the originality of its proposals and expressive maturity.
