Synopsis

To pianist Aya Sekine, jazz is akin to spontaneous conversation and storytelling—making music with others is no different from communication between individuals.

 

2022 marks Sekine’s 20th year of being a professional jazz artist in Singapore. Looking back on the past two decades, she has had so many enjoyable jazz conversations with great musicians. Ready to begin a new chapter of her life, Sekine will celebrate her 20-year milestone by playing some of her favourite standards with two different trios.
