SUMMARY:Romain Collin at Soapbox Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Described by NPR as “a visionary composer\, an extraordinary jazz pianist and a very bright young rising star in the jazz world”\, and touted by the Boston Globe as being “among the leading lights of a new breed of jazz players”\, Romain Collin continues to develop “a highly personal and contemporary vision” (A Blog Supreme\, NPR)\, blurring the lines between virtuosic improvisation\, sound designing\, indie rock and classical music. About to release his new brainchild\, Tiny Lights…\, Collin keeps developing “a unique voice\, a crystal clear vision” (UK VIBE)\, making his mark on the New York scene\, as well as internationally. Tiny Lights… is a unique project that features Obed Calvaire playing acoustic and electronic drums\, Matthew Stevens on electric guitar and Collin on piano\, vocal effects and Moog Taurus- a bass pedal synthesizer. Two numbers on the record also feature the Prague Philharmonic Orchestra.
 In 2009\, Collin released his debut as a leader\, The Rise and Fall of Pipokuhn (Fresh Sound)\, a record described as “an astonishingly mature and ambitious debut that secures Collin a placeholder in the continuing evolution of the grand tradition of the piano trio” (All About Jazz). Collin was soon after invited by legendary pianist Marian McPartland to her prestigious Piano Jazz show on NPR. In 2012\, Collin released The Calling (Palmetto)\, a record described as “a tour de force that showcases Collin’s strengths as an accomplished composer and virtuoso pianist of the highest order” (JazzEd Magazine)\, and as “a work of art that is worthy of being held onto for generations to come” (The Revivalist). Collin’s third release\, Press Enter (ACT\, 2015) was touted by the New York Times as a “winning new album”\, hailed by Jazz journal\, UK as an “absolute masterpiece” and praised by All About Jazz as an “extraordinary album”. 
 While furthering his career as a leader\, Romain co-leads a group with harmonica virtuoso Gregoire Maret\, which features guitarist Bill Frisell- the trio recorded Americana (ACT\, 2019). Romain has also composed orchestra scores for mini-documentaries produced by Peace Nobel Prize Laureate Malala Yousafzai and her fund. Other scoring works include the five-part feature documentary Le Bresil par la Côte\, the two-part feature documentary Les Airventuriers \, various short documentaries for the United Nations Refugee Agency and the for Gates Foundation\, as well as numerous award-wining short movies.
