A four-headed dragon - that’s how you might picture the Dokwerk Saxophone Quartet: four strong voices, breathing as one. And yes, sometimes this dragon breathes fire. Hailing from Germany, Taiwan, Italy and Portugal, the four saxophonists met in Amsterdam, where - inspired by their new shared home, they gave their ensemble a Dutch name: Dokwerk.

“I was very touched by the great performance of the Dokwerk Saxophone Quartet. This group has a distinctive personality showcasing the sounding resonance of four people integrated into one, expanding the expressive possibilities of the quartet. The three chosen pieces were contrasting in character and made an overall complete and rounded program that I enjoyed listening to very much.”

New Album Out!

Having come to Amsterdam from four different corners of the world, ‘Intersections’ is the culmination of the shared journey the four members of the Dokwerk Saxophone Quartet have embarked on ever since their paths first crossed back in 2019.

This album portrays the common (play)grounds Lisa, Jen-Hong, Ileana and Pedro have found their voice and identity as a group to be.
