Multi-award-winning British saxophonist and composer Emma Rawicz emerged on the international stage to critical acclaim with her first release on the prestigious ACT label at the age of just 21. Now, after making her debut on many of Europe’s most important stages and festival lineups, including Ronnie Scott’s, Cadogan Hall, the Berlin Philharmonic, Burghausen Jazz Festival and more, she has sown the seeds of a major career, and become known as one of the leading artists of her generation.
Rawicz was the youngest ever Artist in Residence at Cambridge Jazz Festival and has received several awards and nominations recognizing her achievements. Emma has also recently been selected as a BBC New Generation Artist from September 2024 for two years. With over 70 shows as bandleader and featured artist across 16 countries (a. o. UK, NL, BE, PL, NO, SE, DE, FR, CH) in the past year alone, Emma is rapidly becoming highly sought after as a performer, as well as developing her craft and unique, recognizable sound as a player and composer. Her music is distinct and engaging, thanks to her endlessly melodic compositions, infectious grooves, as well as thrilling interplay with her all-star band, and a virtuosity on her instrument that is well beyond her years. Emma’s sound on the saxophone is a defining part of her identity, with a range that spans gorgeous tone on ballads and fiery exhortations in thrilling odd time and groove numbers. Emma’s music is both sophisticated and wholly accessible, with an honest joyful commitment that is present regardless of the setting.
