Adumá Saxophonquartett

Adumá is a classical saxophone quartet based in Berlin with an international lineup. Drawing on cultural backgrounds from Germany, Russia, and China, they create engaging and diverse programs together. Their repertoire ranges from arrangements of Baroque music to original contemporary compositions, and also includes works from the Classical and Romantic periods.
The saxophonists studied at institutions such as the Hanns Eisler School of Music Berlin, the Berlin University of the Arts, the Hanover University of Music, Drama and Media, and the Mozarteum Salzburg. They have won prizes both as soloists and in various chamber music ensembles at national and international competitions.
Since 2019, Adumá has increasingly collaborated with composers and other instrumentalists. This led to the release of their debut CD Ein Rot tönt den Raum on the label “kreuzberg records.” The album was supported by the Caspar David Friedrich Scholarship of the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and features contemporary works composed specifically for the quartet.
In 2022, they released the CD Verflochten on the label edition zeitklang. Together with French theremin player Grégoire Blanc, Adumá presents five new compositions for saxophone quartet and theremin, supported by the Capital Cultural Fund and the Frankfurt Rhine-Main Cultural Fund.
