Over more than 20 years as a recording artist, the jazz piano phenomenon Hiromi has shifted seamlessly from one spellbinding project to the next. In the process, shes earned a reputation as one of the most explosive live performers in jazz history and a global ambassador for the art form. Her many triumphs include an NPR Tiny Desk Concert that has racked up 2 million views; the opportunity to represent her native Japan with a performance at the 2021 Summer Olympics in Tokyo; 2024 winner for Best Music Score for the animated feature film Blue Giant (Award of the Japanese Academy); and a GRAMMY Award for a collaboration with fusion hero Stanley Clarke. Her artistry is to borrow a descriptor the New Yorker favored dazzling.In 2023, she released Sonicwonderland, debuting perhaps the most expressive, dynamic and versatile working band of her career. Called Hiromis Sonicwonder and featuring Hadrien Feraud on bass, Gene Coye on drums and the trumpeter Adam OFarrill, the group furthered Hiromis distinctive musical alchemy: the spirit of classic jazz-rock fusion melded with classically rooted virtuosity, entrancing funk, pop flourishes and, through OFarrills trumpet, acoustic jazzs state of the art.The album also did a remarkable job of capturing Hiromis mastery as a live entertainer. As the Guardian noted, Sonicwonderland is perhaps the closest thing to Hiromis onstage exuberance.Sale Dates and Times:
