Montreal-based saxophonist and composer Christine Jensen has been described as, “an original voice on the international jazz scene… [and] one of Canada’s most compelling composers,” by the Globe and Mail.

“Jensen writes in three dimensions, with a quiet kind of authority that makes the many elements cohere. Wayne Shorter, Maria Schneider and Kenny Wheeler come to mind.”-Down Beat Magazine.

Jensen has toured the world with her quintet, and has made numerous appearances at the Montreal International Jazz Festival with both her small and large ensembles over the years
