Bureau 45 is proud to welcome the exceptional saxophonist Susanne Alt to our international roster. We are thrilled to represent this world-class artist as she prepares for the release of her seventh studio album, „Dark Horse“, arriving on January 30, 2026.

Recorded in the heart of New York City, Dark Horse captures the raw, spontaneous chemistry of an elite ensemble. While her previous work was a celebrated tribute to Roy Hargrove, this new release focuses on „the moment“—blending Soul, Funk, and Latin elements with a gritty, elastic NYC pulse. It is a testament to Alt’s artistry: melodic, rhythmically compelling, and always in a vivid dialogue with her American bandmates.

A World-Class Performance Lineup:
The album features a powerhouse rhythm section consisting of musicians who served as the backbone of Roy Hargrove’s band for seven years, bringing an unmatched level of groove and synergy to the stage:

• James Hurt (Keyboards – known for work with Abbey Lincoln, DJ Logic)
• Gerald Cannon (Bass – former musical director for McCoy Tyner & member of Elvin Jones’ band)
• Willie Jones III (Drums – toured with Milt Jackson and Arturo Sandoval)

Booking Information:
Susanne Alt is now available for festival bookings, club dates, and exclusive release shows through Bureau 45. Witness one of Europe’s most versatile and soulful saxophonists as she pushes the boundaries of contemporary acoustic jazz with this high-energy New York quartet.
