Description
[Machine Translation] Tigran Hamasyan is currently the No.1 pianist in the Jazz world. His first album "MOCKROOT", which transcends the category of jazz and creates a unique new world, is now available! Tigran Hamasyan is a genius pianist from Armenia who is currently attracting the most attention. His performance in Japan in September last year was a big hit and is still fresh in our memories. He has now moved from Universal (Verve) to Nonesuch! The release of his first album "MOCKROOT" has already been announced. Born and raised in Armenia, Tigran was educated as both a jazz and classical musician, but he also has a wide variety of other musical influences, including Armenian folk music, rock, electro, and poetry. His unique sound and sonic universe, which transcends the boundaries of jazz, has excited fans in the United States, Europe, and Japan, as well as around the world. The Guardian (UK) wrote, "Tigran has found a way to keep improvisation fresh and lyrical. The Daily Telegraph praised Hamasyan, saying, "There are many brilliant and accomplished young musicians, but Hamasyan stands out from the crowd because he has something important to say, and he has to say it now. This is his fifth film. MOCKROOT" is his fifth album. The recording members are the same trio that visited Japan last September ( Tigran Hamasyan - piano, voice, keyboards, synths, sound effects / Sam Minaie - electric bass / Arthur Hnatek Drums/Live Electronics ). The album includes Tigran's compositions as well as "Kars 1" and "Kars 2," Tigran's arrangements of traditional Armenian songs. Some jazz aficionados may find Tigran's use of Armenian melodies and irregular rhythms to be far outside the realm of jazz. Born in 1987, the 27-year-old began performing at festivals and competitions at the age of 11, and by the time he was a teenager, he was playing in the "Thelonious Monk International Jazz Festival" and the "Thelonious Monk International Jazz Festival". He has been performing at festivals and competitions since he was 11 years old, and won the first prize at "Thelonious Monk International Jazz Piano Competition" in his teens.
