Jeremy Rose is a prolific saxophonist and composer from Sydney, Australia. He is known for his wide breadth of work, gift for vibrant melody, and musical curiosity.
His career spans over 25 unique original recordings as a leader and over 150 works. His current ensembles include The Earshift Orchestra, The Vampires, Vazesh, Visions of Nar, Project Infinity, and the Jeremy Rose Quartet.
Rose has received numerous accolades for his work, including an ARIA Award for Best Jazz Album, the APRA/AMCOS Art Music Award for Improvised/Jazz Performance of the Year, two Bell Awards, and a short-listing for the Australian Music Prize. As a label director of Earshift Music, Rose has fostered a community of creative musicians throughout Australasia which NYC Jazz Records describes as “hell-bent on pushing the very definition of jazz,” and Sydney Morning Herald describes as “Australia’s most significant outlet for jazz-related music.” The label celebrated 15 years in 2024 with over 90 releases.
Join the Jeremy Rose Quartet as they visit music from his four critically acclaimed solo releases: Face to Face, Within and Without, Sand Lines, and Chiba. With a lineup of some of Sydney’s best jazz artists, this is a night not to be missed!
