SUMMARY:Miki Yamanaka Trio at Birdland (Early and Late Shows)
DESCRIPTION:Description\n34-year old Japanese-born pianist Miki Yamanaka has called New York City home since 2012 and in the past decade has wasted no time establishing herself as one of the leading personalities of her generation on the piano and beyond. Critics laud her “light\, expressive touch and solidly crafted\, mainstream approach” – Mike Jurkovic (All About Jazz)\, while audiences delight in not only her playing\, but her vibrant personality as well. Yamanaka has gained international recognition from her albums as a leader; her most recent and most celebrated release\, “Shades Of Rainbow” (Cellar Music)\, features Jazz masters Mark Turner and her NYC rhythm section\, Tyrone Allen and Jimmy Macbride. Additionally\, Miki has emerged as a leader of the “New York Scene” via her notable residencies at mainstay West Village sister clubs Smalls and Mezzrow. During the pandemic\, she developed a successful in-home live-streaming weekly concert series cleverly titled “Miki’s Mood” where she features a veritable who’s who of NYC talent (including her husband and frequent collaborator – drummer Jimmy Macbride). The series showcases her vast knowledge of Jazz standards and tunes\, often featuring themed offerings of various composers from both the Great American Songbook as well as iconic Jazz composers. \nAs a sideman\, Yamanaka has worked with Jazz luminaries such as alto saxophonist Antonio Hart who posits “Miki will be recognized as one of the most exceptional artists of her generation\, as she is already one of the most talented and dedicated musicians from Japan.” Other notable bands she currently works in include the Harish Raghavan Quintet and The Mingus Bigband. One of her most respected mentors on piano and organ (Yamanaka also performs on organ frequently)\, Larry Goldings\, once mused\, “If only I could have Miki Yamanaka comp behind me!” – a compliment of the highest order from one master pianist to another. She has a myriad of glowing reviews from her recorded work and the iconic Downbeat Jazz magazine has repeatedly awarded her albums high marks. \nPhoto by ​Martina DaSilva \nThis event is recurring on the following dates:\nThu\, Nov 27 at 05:30 PM\nThu\, Nov 27 at 08:30 PM
