Kayo Hiraki’s New York Trio
Kayo Hiraki, pianist/vocalist, is one of the few Japanese jazz musicians established on New York City's jazz scene, where she plays with some of the best musicians in the world. After playing a session with her, the legendary bassist Ron Carter said: "Rarely have I heard a musician as gifted as Ms. Hiraki. To hear her play is to experience the joy of her creative ability and the depth of her experience as a talented performer." A child prodigy, Kayo attended Kunitachi Music College and won recognition in Japan as a composer, arranger and performer before taking on the Big Apple. Check samples of her luminous music at her web site: http://www.kayojazzpiano.com. She has released 6 CDs representing her unique interpretation of jazz standards and original compositions. Kayo is a Steinway piano artist and is a Grammy voting member.
