Start your year afresh with Australia's legendary jazz pianist/composer Mike Nock. One of the Sydney Morning Herald Magazine's top 100 most influential people in 2009, and inducted into the Australian Jazz Hall of Fame at the 2009 Bell Awards, Mike Nock has been at the forefront of Australian jazz since 1960. He was accorded the 2007 ARIA Award for CD 'Duologue,' the 2004 Bell Award for 'Big Small Band Live!' and the New Zealand Order of Merit (ONZM) in 2003.
Nock will perform a special New Year concert of original and jazz standards together with Ko Omura (drums) and Takashi Sugawa (bass).
Born in Tokyo in 1981, Ko Omura grew up in both the US and Australia, graduating from the Sydney Conservatorium of Music and relocating to Tokyo in 2006. He has since performed in the Tokyo Jazz Festival and Sapporo City International Jazz Festival.
Born in 1982 in Gunma, Takashi Sugawa won a scholarship to the Berklee School of Music (US) after which he re-established himself in Tokyo.
