Adele Sauros will release her fourth album “Adele Sauros: Your Special Loss” on March 7, 2024. The album is published by the Spanish Fresh Sounds Records and the Adele Sauros Quartet is doing an extensive album release tour in the Nordic countries and Spain.
Saxophonist Adele Sauros is one of the most active jazz musicians and composers in Finland and Europe at the moment. Combining the styles of Nordic and American jazz, the Adele Sauros Quartet was founded in 2012 and has released the albums Adele Sauros: I Paint You (Fresh Sound Records 2021), Adele Sauros: My Spontaneous Mind (2016) and Adele Sauros Quartet: It’s Who I Am ( 2014). There have been performances at the most important jazz festivals in Finland and in the Nordic countries. The band recently represented Finland at the Nordic Jazz Comets event at the Montmartre Jazz Club in Copenhagen 2022 and did a tour in Sweden organized by the Finnish Jazz Association for the event.
The fourth album consists of Sauros’ compositions dealing with recovery and finding hope. The melodic and serious compositions draw influences from the Nordic and American jazz tradition. Sauros believes that tunes can change the world if you make art on your own terms like the Adele Sauros Quartet. The band’s members are virtuoso jazz musicians with open minds and the courage to deviate from familiar patterns and throw themselves into spontaneous improvisation.

‘There is something very rewarding when the listener immediately realizes that they are in the hands of modest virtuosos. The Adele Sauros Quartet continued to wait – and let the audience wait – for a proper release. The dynamic stretched over two sets.’
