LUKE MARANTZ & FRIENDS

Luke Marantz meets the Amsterdam Jazz Scene: A Unique Musical Encounter

At the initiative of drummer and composer Sun Mi Hong, New York pianist Luke Marantz is coming to Splendor for a special musical encounter with Sun Mi, bassist Zack Lober, and saxophonists Ben van Gelder and Michael Moore.

Luke Marantz is an internationally acclaimed pianist and composer based in Brooklyn, New York. Described by NPR as “among the best young American jazz pianists”, DownBeat Magazine as “a pianist who paints at the keyboard with musicality” and Paris Move as “among the most quietly compelling voices shaping the future contours of contemporary jazz”.

This concert brings a number of Luke's old and new friends from the local music scene together on stage; they will play each other's compositions.
