Simon Rose (UK/DE) is a musician-composer, researcher and author. He’s a recognised baritone saxophonist with a main interest in open improvisation and appears on over forty music releases.

He performs regularly as a soloist and in numerous collaborations in Europe and North America. Additionally, he frequently performs in interdisciplinary settings with dancers, visual artists and others. He holds a PhD from Glasgow Caledonian University and has authored two books: ‘The lived experience of improvisation: in music, learning and life’ (Intellect/Chicago 2017) and ‘Relational Improvisation: Music, Dance and Contemporary Art’ (Routledge 2024).

‘Procession’ is one of the finest statements from the saxophone I have ever had the pleasure to experience.’
Marc Medwin, CADENCE.

‘Rose gifted the audience with a beautiful performance, full of nuances, circular breathing and something like a theatrical attitude, but very near the essence and far from rhetoric.’
