Samuel Blaser is one of the most prolific voices in jazz, with 34 recordings as a leader or co-leader since 2008.

With his latest, deeply personal album, *Rosina*, named after his grandmother, he draws on Italian folk melodies and deeply reconnects with his family roots in Emilia-Romagna.

In his quartet, Blaser is joined by pianist Russ Lossing, drummer Billy Mintz, and double bassist Masa Kamaguchi—long-time companions who create the vast open spaces, spirited exchanges, and sudden lyrical intimacy that characterize Samuel Blaser’s work.
