This concert is broadcasted on Bimhuis Radio
Monty Alexander is back with his trio after his sold out Bimhuis gig in 2013; a fresh 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).
