Listen to selections from Hiromi's forthcoming album 'Place to Be' (Jan 26/Telarc International) and much more here: https://bit.ly/hiromiEPK

The Jazz Times story explores how Hiromi became "one of jazz piano's most brazenly virtuosic players." And although she self-deprecatingly describes herself as "a little Japanese girl," the article reports that onstage "she's a wild woman, a fleet-fingered, hyper-animated dynamo." The Keyboard cover story delves into Hiromi's astonishing technique, revealing how she unlocks "the secret orchestra inside your piano."

Both articles highlight the January release of Hiromi's breathtaking first album of solo compositions, 'Place to Be' (Telarc Records).

Hiromi will play two shows at the New York's Highline Ballroom on Jan. 28. More info and tickets are available at https://www.ticketweb.com.

Since her debut on the international jazz scene in 2003, Hiromi Uehara has dazzled audiences and critics with her technique, which can be both delicately lyrical and ferociously physical. Having previously recorded five albums as a bandleader, a trio recording with bassist Stanley Clarke and a live duet album with her mentor Chick Corea, 'Place to Be' finds her pushing her limits even further while painting musical portraits of memorable places from her world travels.
