“And Then There Were Three” An Adventurous Jazz Piano Trio Plays Selections From Their Critically Acclaimed Album
Pianist Keigo Hirakawa is joined by bassist Eddie Brookshire and drummer Fenton Sparks on April 22nd, 2016 at 7:30pm.
The Keigo Hirakawa Trio is a hard hitting, hard swinging, jazz piano trio that reach the highest level of improvisational artistry. Hirakawa’s complex rhythmic and harmonic improvisation, Eddie Brookshire’s exploration of inside and outside sounds, and Fenton Sparks’s spontaneous reactions make each trio performance an adventurous endeavor. Acclaimed jazz pianist Stephen Scott describes Hirakawa’s playing as "full of inventiveness and a sense of adventure, creativeness and voracious angularity, aggressiveness, and jaggedness, passion and swing." Jazz critic Mark Sullivan of AllAboutJazz.com characterizes the ensemble as “a true trio, not just piano plus two accompanists.” After seeing their show at Gilly’s in Ohio, legendary jazz guitarist George Benson even remarked “I had to come to Dayton to hear real jazz!”
Freshly returning from their East Coast Tour, the Keigo Hirakawa Trio will appear at Degage Jazz Cafe in Maumee, Ohio on Friday, April 22nd. The Trio is celebrating the anniversary of their trio album, “And Then There Were Three,” released in April 2015. The concert at Degage Jazz Cafe will feature a number of selections from this album, as well as time-honored jazz standards.
The Keigo Hirakawa Trio will be appearing on April 22nd at 7:30PM at the Degage Jazz Cafe at 301 River Rd, Maumee, OH 43537. Please visit degagejazzcafe.com or call 419-794-8205.
