The Riga Saxophone Quartet (RSQ) made its promising debut in 1992, and this marked the beginning of a new era of academic saxophone music in Latvia. At that time the ensemble\’s personnel were different; the current members have been together since the year 2009. The only remaining original member is the quartet\’s founder, Artis Simanis. The RSQ is the central axis for the International Saxophone Music Festival SAXOPHONIA, which was held for the sixth time in February of 2009 in Latvia. The RSQ has earned wide acclaim from its audiences and from highly critical specialists; it has selected stylistically appealing repertoire, and has reached for the highest level of professionalism in its technical mastery and subtle musicianship. A significant role has been devoted to breaking the stereotype of the saxophone as a purely jazz instrument.
