About

Multi-award winning composer Olivia Murphy has quickly established herself as an innovative, creative and colourful artist working in large ensemble jazz.

After studying jazz saxophone at the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire, Olivia has focused on composition and conducting, developing her own distinct and personal voice. Her music fuses contemporary composition and song-writing with elements of free improvisation, while always keeping story-telling at its core.

The Olivia Murphy Jazz Orchestra was established with the support of the Peter Whittingham Jazz Award in 2021 and has since gone on to perform sold out performances across the UK, and release its debut EP, Somewhere, Not So Far Away, which was recorded live at Birmingham Symphony Hall in 2022. The orchestra will be recording its debut studio album in October 2024, with support from the Help Musicians Next Level Award.
