Canadian Jazz Saxophonist Christine Jensen Plugs Neon Jazz

Montreal-based saxophonist and composer Christine Jensen has been described as, “an originalvoice on the international jazz scene… [and] one of Canada’s most compelling composers,” by Mark Miller of the Globe and Mail. According to Greg Buium of Downbeat Magazine, “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.” After a performance at the 2006 Montreal International Jazz Festival, Scott Yanow wrote, “She’s rapidly developing into a majo force … as a player and as a writer.” Neon Jazz is a radio program airing since 2011.
