Emma Rawicz Quartet @ Jazz Café POSK

A concert by an exciting multi-award winning young saxophonist and composer, already making a name for herself on the UK music scene

10 December, 8.30pm (7.30pm bar), Jazz Cafe Posk

“An astonishing new talent” (Jamie Cullum – BBC Radio 2)

“A force to be reckoned with” (Jazzwise)

“A name on everyone’s lips right now” (Julian Joseph – J to Z BBC Radio 3)

These are just a few of the dazzling reviews of the multi-award winning young saxophonist and composer, Emma Rawicz, who is already making a name for herself on the UK music scene.

Emma’s influences range from modern jazz and fusion to folk and soul, key figures in her musical development including Chris Potter, Ari Hoenig, Kenny Jarrett, Joe Henderson, Chick Corea and more.

Growing up in rural North Devon, she didn’t discover jazz until the age of 15, and didn’t pick up a tenor saxophone until a year later, but spent her childhood surrounded by folk and classical music.

At the age of 20 she has already recorded and released an eagerly awaited debut album ‘Incantation’ featuring Ant Law, made up entirely of her original compositions. and her second album, recorded in summer 2022 features an all-star band of Ivo Neame, Ant Law, Conor Chaplin and Asaf Sirkis, will be released in early 2023.

She is also the recipient of the 2021 Drake Yolanda Award, winner of ‘Best Newcomer’ at the 2022 Parliamentary Jazz Awards and nominee for the 2022 Jazz FM ‘Instrumentalist of the year’.
