SHAI MAESTRO Vinyl & CDs

Review: Shai Maestro is widely regarded as one of the most original and influential jazz pianists of his generation. Since launching his trio in 2011, he has cultivated a distinctive musical voice that is fluid, expressive and richly lyrical. His sound blends jazz improvisation with global influences and cinematic depth and has won him comparisons to legends like Keith Jarrett and Chick Corea. With acclaimed ECM recordings produced by Manfred Eicher, Maestro has become a major force in contemporary jazz and his latest album backs that up with a first foray into a solo piano album that explores nuance, emotion and storytelling through improvisation and composition.
