Arnie Somogyi Invites: Josephine Davies
Josephine Davies saxophone
Winner of the 2019 Parliamentary Award 鈥楯azz Instrumentalist of the year鈥�, Josephine Davies is a musical artist at the forefront of the UK contemporary music scene, pushing the boundaries of jazz with her current main artistic project Satori聽- a sax/bass/drums trio with an emphasis on extended and collaborative improvisation. It is a project that combines her seeking of freedom of expression with her interest in Japanese philosophy and lifestyle.
Now becoming equally known as a composer, her unique voice is a blend of classical, jazz and folk music, creating an intensely dynamic sound infused with the Nordic quality of her Shetland roots. Deeply influenced by the American composer Maria Schneider, Josephine was resident composer and tenor player for the London Jazz Orchestra from 2011-2016, and now has her own big band The Enso Ensemble.
As a saxophonist she is known for her melodic focus, versatility and unique style which has been described as 鈥渃onsistently inventive鈥� (Jazzwise Magazine), 鈥渟trong and authoritative鈥� (The JazzMann) and 鈥渨ith winning immediacy鈥� (MOJO Magazine).
Running time approx. two hours and 30 minutes
