Hiromi at Meridian Arts Centre

About

Japanese jazz composer and pianist Hiromi is one of the most inventive and awe-inspiring pianists in jazz today. Known for her virtuosic technique, energetic live performances and blend of musical genres, her music has been called "part classical, part jazz and part simply unclassifiable" (David Was/NPR). Hiromi’s “boisterous and dynamic playing is more engaging than most 5-piece bands can play on their best day. The energy she pours into each song is maniacal, frantic, precise, and poetic.” (Brad Yeakel/musicmarauders.com).
