2026 Proms season showcase - Emma Rawicz

Jazz saxophonist Emma Rawicz and pianist Gwilym Simcock recorded live at St George's Bristol - brilliant music making from two generations of Radio 3 New Generation Artists.

Rising star saxophonist and composer Emma Rawicz joins forces with celebrated pianist and composer Gwilym Simcock at St George's, Bristol for an evening of rare and beautiful music, reflecting their collaboration’s swiftly-blossoming depth and freedom.

They perform their own tracks and also arrangements of well-known tunes from the American Songbook, that also feature on their debut album. This is intuitively joyful, acrobatic music underpinned by their shared musical intelligence – emotionally gripping improvised music in a pared-down, chamber music setting.
