Asya Fateyeva

**Asya Fateyeva** is a Ukrainian-born classical saxophonist known for her genre-blending creativity and fearless reimagination of music. Born in Crimea in 1990, she began playing saxophone at age eight and later studied at the Detmold University of Music in Germany, cementing her reputation as a virtuoso in both classical and contemporary realms. Fateyeva’s recent work showcases her playful yet sophisticated approach, like fusing ABBA’s pop hits with baroque ensembles (check out *Dancing Queen - Rameau meets ABBA* or her Bo Wiget-arranged ABBA covers) or reworking early music with unexpected pairings (think soprano sax and baroque harp collabs with arranger Enzian). A winner of prestigious competitions like the Adolphe Sax International Competition, she’s carved a niche as an innovator who bridges centuries of sound, proving the saxophone’s versatility—from haunting *Musical Moments* to whimsical cross-genre experiments.
