Emmet Cohen live in Utrecht

Experience Emmet Cohen live on November 13th

Emmet Cohen is a contemporary jazz pianist and composer known for his deeply rooted style in the post-bop tradition, drawing heavily from influences like Nat Adderley, Wynton Kelly, and McCoy Tyner. His performances frequently feature a trio format—piano, bass, and drums—but also incorporate larger ensembles and vocalists. Cohen’s playing is characterized by its swinging rhythm, harmonic sophistication, and melodic inventiveness; he’s also recognized for his dedication to preserving and extending the legacy of the Great American Songbook. He leads the “Masters Legacy Series” which spotlights established jazz musicians alongside emerging talent.
