About

ARTEMIS is a powerful ensemble of modern jazz masters, founded in 2017 by pianist and musical director Renee Rosnes. In Real Time––the band’s second release on Blue Note Records ––has been garnering universal acclaim. NPR wrote that “it further establishes their prowess both as individuals and as a collective…a supergroup,” and from the Times of London, “robust voicings, free-jazz diversions and searching modal patterns all feature in the intricate style of ARTEMIS…so distinctive is each voice and so striking is their sense of unity.” DownBeat hailed the music as “deep swinging” and a “stellar follow-up” to the band’s debut album in 2020 and the band won “Jazz Group of the Year” in the 88th Downbeat Readers’ Poll.
