Connie Han Trio
CONTEMPORARY JAZZ
Downbeat Magazine calls her “crazy-good.” Hear the fiery and ferocious piano talents of Connie Han and her trio in an evening filled with melodic grooves and thrilling foot-tapping energy.
28-year-old piano virtuoso and composer Connie Han channels the jazz piano legacy through her dynamic, contemporary style. Named a Steinway Artist in 2019, Connie exhibits her charismatic playing style in its full emotional range on Secrets of Inanna, her third release on Mack Avenue Records—a vivid musical interpretation of the enigmatic Inanna, the ancient Sumerian proto-goddess of Love, Beauty, and War.
“The jazz warrior-goddess” — Downbeat Magazine
“Connie Han has established herself as one of contemporary jazz’s most talented and inventive musicians by combining the precision of her childhood training as a classical pianist with the improvisation, and irrepressible emotion, of her heroes Freddie Hubbard and Kenny Kirkland.” – Variety Magazine
