Ingrid Jensen

One of the most gifted trumpeters of her generation, Canada's Ingrid Jensen is celebrated for her daring, harmonically-sophisticated post-bop jazz. Influenced by the progressive style of artists like Woody Shaw, Art Farmer, and Kenny Wheeler, Jensen arrived on the international jazz scene in the early '90s and won a Juno Award for her 1994 debut Vernal Fields. Often playing with her husband, drummer Jon Wikan, and sister, saxophonist Christine Jensen, she has issued a handful of highly regarded albums, like 2005's At Sea and 2011's Spirals, that display her love of adventurous improvisation and atmospheric group interplay. It's a spirit of bold collaboration she brings to her work with the all-women collective Artemis and on albums like 2026's Landings.
