MONTY ALEXANDER

Monty Alexander is back with his trio nearly 25 years after his last gig at the Bimhuis; a great opportunity to catch the famous pianist in an intimate setting. Monty Alexander’s playing balances between jazz, soul and such Caribbean styles as calypso and reggae. As a teenager the pianist moved from Jamaica to New York. He played with Frank Sinatra and Ray Brown and made his breakthrough as a solo artist in the 1970s. ‘It’s a relief to turn to Monty Alexander, a masterly pianist who delights audiences everywhere’ (London Evening Standard).
