Jazz

Gary Bartz - Sax (Alto), Sax (Soprano)
George Colligan - Fender Rhodes, Piano, Piano (Electric)

On her new album "Here On Earth", Ingrid's mature and muscular playing is powered up by such great sidemen as Gary Bartz and Bill Stewart. To the ears of Jazz Journal's Scott Yanow, this trumpet player sounds "like a logical successor to Freddie Hubbard and Woody Shaw while resembling her teacher Art Farmer a bit when using a mute."

Trumpeter Ingrid Jensen continues to pursue the edges of "in" on her second disc as leader. This time around, Jensen gets some assistance via the ever explosive drummer Bill Stewart as well as the equally searching reedman Gary Bartz. This is solid post-bop jazz that deserves a listen.
--- Matt Collar, All Music Guide
Ingrid Jensen's first album, Vernal Fields, won Canada's Juno Award as "Best Mainstream Album of 1995". The same year, Jensen received the "Best Newcomer Award" at the Cork Jazz Festival in Ireland and weeks later, won the second annual Carmine Caruso International Jazz Solo Trumpet Competition held in Kalamazoo, Michigan. In 1996 she performed throughout Europe, parts of Japan and Chile, and into North America with her own quartet, and big bands such as the Maria Schneider Orchestra
For all the press accolades on Jensen's playing, she is not seeking this "soloist" spotlight. "It's hard for me to appreciate that concept in jazz or improvised music," she says. "Music is a channel through which we collectively communicate with each other. It's about human energies interacting spontaneously, creating a universal language, which I love to take part in with both musicians and audiences around the world."
Jensen longed to be living in New York, for its energy and the variety of live music. New York City was also where she wanted to record her first album. Opportunity knocked. In 1994, at a summer jazz workshop in Banff, she learned of an audition for a New York City-based big-band called DIVA. Jensen won the chair and moved back to the Big Apple and has been playing throughout the world ever since.
In fact, Jensen has a performance schedule that would make even the busiest airline pilot wince, dividing her time between several continents. In North America, she is a busy freelancer in New York City and across Canada. She has performed at prestigious venues such as: the Kennedy Center as a soloist in an All-Star band and performing with both the Maria Schneider Orchestra and DIVA; the Newport Jazz Festival with Dr. John and the GRP All-Stars; The Senator in Toronto with the Phil Dwyer Trio; and at the Washington D.C.'s Blues Alley with pianist Marc Copeland, drummer Dennis Chambers and saxophonist Bob Berg.
Her career is moving forward, she says, because she focuses on the music instead of what she's accomplished. "I try to keep my life and music on a parallel course and my goal is to be growing in both realms. There are so many elements in music that can be discovered and expresses when we are honest about the direction that our lives are taking us. That's all I'm trying to do - follow the spirit of the muse and play."
Ingrid Jensen
Active Decades: '90s and '00s
Born: 1967
Genre: Jazz
Styles: Hard Bop, Post-Bop
One of the most-gifted hard bop trumpeters of her generation, Ingrid Jensen was born in Vancouver, British Columbia, in 1967. After attending the Berklee College of Music in Boston, she toured Europe with the Vienna Art Orchestra's production Fe and Males; following the completion of the tour, she remained abroad, teaching jazz trumpet and becoming, at age 25, the youngest professor at Austria's Bruckner Conservatory. Jensen also toured with Lionel Hampton & His Golden Men of Jazz before returning to the U.S. in 1994, joining the big band DIVA; that same year, she also recorded her debut LP, the Enja label release Vernal Fields. An acolyte of Miles Davis, Art Farmer, and Woody Shaw, her second album, Here on Earth, appeared in 1997 and was followed two years later by Higher Grounds.
