Montréal-based CODE Quartet is a powerhouse collective of four of Canada’s leading jazz composers and improvisers. The chord-less quartet features original compositions that draw from each member’s unique background, creating an organic dialogue and a diverse, refined soundscape. Jensen has racked up numerous awards, incl. two Junos. Vedady and Doxas have lent their artistry to jazz greats such as Carla Bley, Dave Douglas and Marc Copland. Originally from New Zealand, French is now a bright star on the Canadian jazz scene.
