Trumpetist

Even as a teenager, she met Oscar Peterson and Chick Corea, two of the greatest jazz piano legends. The Japanese pianist Hiromi is one of a kind, a superstar not only in her homeland. Her musical ideas are inspired by classical music, fusion jazz and progressive rock. Over the course of her 20-year career, the virtuoso artist and Grammy winner has surprised her audiences time and again, without any trace of (sonic) routine creeping in. Her latest project is big on groove, and together with the fusion jazz band Sonicwonder, specifically founded for this occasion, she takes the listeners into fascinating sonic dream worlds in the program »SonicWonderland«. This is hard to top when it comes to playfulness and melodic inventiveness.

Jazz pianist Hiromi has electrified audiences with a creative energy that encompasses and eclipses the boundaries of jazz, classical and pop, taking improvisation and composition to new heights of complexity and sophistication. Her new groove-heavy project called Sonicwonder features a young and electrified 4-piece band including Adam O’Farrill on trumpet, Hadrien Feraud on bass, and Gene Coye on drums.

“One of jazz piano’s most brazenly virtuosic players.” —The New York Times

Since Hiromi’s debut album Another Mind (2003), the world-renowned pianist’s sound has evolved with every release, erasing the lines between jazz and classical, composition and improvisation. Now she changes tack again with her heaviest, funkiest album yet: Sonicwonderland.

No jazz pianist alive is possessed of more explosive virtuosity or thrilling unpredictability than Hiromi – a GRAMMY-winning artist the All Music Guide calls “one of the most remarkable pianists of the past half century.” Her second SFJAZZ residency with her Sonicwonder quartet features the masterful trumpeter Adam O’Farrill, French-born bass phenom Hadrien Feraud, and monster drummer Gene Coye, celebrating the release of her new Concord album, the follow-up to her 2023 debut with this project.
