LATEST ALBUM

The members of Kairos Ensemble originally met and became close friends in the early 1990s while studying music at the Royal Academy of Music and City University in London. They formed the quartet in 2001. Their extensive live work now spanning 25 years has included playing to 1000s at festivals right through to performing at intimate jazz clubs. They have held workshops and toured in the UK and France. They have released six albums, their most recent being Here is Love (2026) which features a collection of jazz arrangements of classic hymns.

Their previous album, Rejoicing Blues (2013), received significant radio airplay. It was called ‘an inspiration’ by Bruce Lindsay (All About Jazz) and ‘one of the most delightful albums of 2013’ (Jazz Journal). Passion Suite (2010) was described by Julian Joseph on Radio 3’s Jazz Line-Up as ‘beautiful music’ and was performed live for a Jazz Services tour. Before that came Psalms (2006), Psalms Live (2004) and The River (2002). 

Their music reflects the breadth of the individual players’ experience and captures a vibrant chemistry between the musicians. Through their strongly melodic and inventive compositions and arrangements, they produce music that is passionate, lyrical and always engaging.
