SUMMARY:Christine Jensen Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Canadian saxophonist and composer Christine Jensen has lent a distinct voice to the creative jazz scene of the past twenty-five years. Her jazz orchestra recordings Treelines and Habitat were JUNO Award-winners for Jazz Album of the Year (group) in 2011 and 2014\, respectively\, while her third jazz orchestra album Harbour (Justin-Time Records) is nominated in this year’s signature celebration of Canadian talent. \nQuite a regular at the JUNOs\, her dynamic and expressive Quartet album Day Moon won for Jazz Album of the Year (solo) in 2024. Inspired by seeing a full moon as the sun was rising during the global pandemic\, it’s an apt image for a suite of music that taps into deep reservoirs of emotion while keeping “enough uplift and whimsy in the playing to remedy any unsought melancholy. The welcome catharsis in Jensen’s vision expands both ways” (Downbeat). \nJensen is constantly in motion as an improviser\, composer and bandleader. A Downbeat Critic’s Poll Rising Star winner in multiple categories (Big Band\, Arranger\, and Soprano Saxophonist)\, she’s performed with Jeremy Pelt\, Phil Dwyer\, Donny McCaslin\, Swedish pianist Maggi Olin\, and scores of other creative jazz greats\, including her sister Ingrid Jensen and their Infinitude ensemble featuring Ben Monder. \nHer Quartet features inventive first-call Montréal players in drummer Jim Doxas and bassist Adrian Vedady\, as well as NYC-based pianist Gary Versace\, whose remarkable resumé includes work with John Scofield\, John Abercrombie\, and Maria Schneider. \n“Always a compelling writer\, capable of strong lyricism combined with harmonic invention and plenty of narrative twists and turns\, Jensen’s music not only impresses on a first encounter\, but reveals more with each and every listen.” – All About Jazz \nThis is an accessible venue. If assistance is required please contact: boxoffice@coastaljazz.ca \nPlease Note: Seating is limited with a mix of seating and standing room. Arrive early for seating. Box Office & Lobby open at 6:30 PM; House opens at 7:00 PM; the show starts at 7:30 PM \nWe are grateful for the support of the Alan and Gwendoline Pyatt Foundation.
