Reviews
‘With Inkyra, Emma Rawicz comes in full bloom, an artist with a great vision and voice that uplifts the spirit and taps the soul. […] When Rawicz solos on tenor saxophone, the tune lifts into the stratosphere. She shows off her serious chops in building a soaring improvisation that, at its conclusion, left this listener saying, “Whew!” ’ ★★★★ Editor’s Pick, Downbeat (US)
‘Dreamily cinematic soundscapes, snappy polyrhythmic tenor-sax groovers and atmospherically songlike meditations.’ The Guardian
“Emma Rawicz is one of the most exciting artists on the British jazz scene.[…} a statement for a new generation.” NDR Kultur
