Jon Zufiaurre

Spain · tenor saxophone & collective free improvisation

Jon Zufiaurre is a tenor saxophonist active in collective improvised music. His work is documented in the Limbo Ensemble, whose performances assemble wind instruments, strings and percussion in open forms shaped through the interaction of the players. His saxophone contributes a distinct reed voice to the group's changing combinations of sustained tones, short gestures and contrasting timbres.

Within this setting, the tenor saxophone operates as both a melodic instrument and a source of acoustic texture. The ensemble's approach emphasises attentive listening and spontaneous decisions rather than a fixed arrangement, allowing the sound to shift as the participants move between simultaneous gestures, quieter passages and denser collective sections.
