Alden Hellmuth
Alden Hellmuth is a saxophonist, improviser, and composer currently based in Los Angeles. Originally from Hartford, Connecticut, she grew up surrounded by the legacy of the great saxophonist Jackie McLean. She is currently pursuing her masters through the Herbie Hancock Institute at UCLA and received her bachelor degree in music management through the Hartt School, where she studied with saxophonist Abraham Burton. Led by her foundation in the tradition of BAM and passion for a vast spectrum of experimental musical idioms, Alden is deeply inspired by contemporary composers like Ingrid Laubrock, Steve Lehman, and Ambrose Akinmusire, and visual artists like Louise Bourgeois. As a composer and improviser, Alden aims to continuously push and question the boundaries of genre. Her debut album, "Good Intentions," released in September 2024 under the Fresh Sound New Talent label, has already garnered acclaim, with Steve Smith of For The Record describing it as "a vital debut," and Culture Jazz praising it as "...full of character, great imagination, and vibrant energy."
