[Performance Description]
Minchan Kim Trio with Tony Lakatos
A special Korean tour featuring drummer Minchan Kim, based in New York, performing with the musicians he has met and deeply resonated with throughout his travels around the world!
This stage brings together rising star guitarist Ilan Eisenberg, who is gaining attention in the New York jazz scene, legendary saxophonist Tony Lakatos, a master representative of European jazz, and Korean bassist Dae-Ho Kim, who has shared the longest musical journey with Minchan Kim.
Musical languages built from different cultures and cities naturally meet within the single flow of jazz, and within that, they expand into new sounds once more.
Their music combines the strong swing tradition that serves as the source of jazz with a refined sound infused with contemporary sensibility. The tension created by deep interplay and free improvisation vividly fills the stage.
New encounters are added to the rapport built over many years, completing a more flexible and multidimensional sound. This tour transcends simple collaboration, creating a special moment where different worlds connect through one music.
