Modern jazz piano trio with a broad repertoire of original compositions and a few pop covers and standards. The repertoire will feature original compositions and arrangements by Noah, Kayvon and Gervis, alongside extended interpretations of works from the jazz lexicon. The music will blend the trio’s unique personalities, experimentalism, and deep understanding of the music’s history.

Noah Haidu
Jazz pianist and composer Noah Haidu combines modernism, soul, and swing to create what the Wall Street Journal has described as “his own compelling brand of pianism.”
Noah started classical piano at age 6, spurred on initially by fear of his vindictive piano teacher. Falling in love with Jazz at age 20, the young pianist moved to NYC, supporting himself as a waiter until he was fired for breaking one too many dishes.
After paying his dues as a freelancer for many years, Noah has lately toured and recorded with icons such as Billy Hart, Buster Williams, Lenny White and Steve Wilson. His Sunnyside Records albums garnered millions of streams and reached the top 5 in the JazzWeek radio charts. @instagram , YouTube,https://www.noahhaidu.com
