Naoko Sakata Trio

Svens­ka in­sti­tu­tet i Athen har bju­dit in Na­o­ko Sa­ka­ta Trio för att spe­la på:

–  16th Athens Te­ch­no­po­lis Jazz Fes­ti­val, lör­dag 28 maj 2016, kl. 23.00 och
–  14th Pre­ve­za Jazz Fes­ti­val, sön­dag 29 maj 2016.

Ban­det be­står av Na­o­ko Sa­ka­ta (pi­a­no), Al­fred Lo­ri­ni­us (bas) och Jo­han Bir­ge­ni­us (trum­mor).

Na­o­ko Sa­ka­ta Trio mo­ves between the com­po­sed and the im­pro­vi­sed, with in­tui­ti­ve in­ter­play, quick turns and a lot of sur­pri­ses. In 2008, Ja­pa­ne­se born pi­a­nist Na­o­ko Sa­ka­ta mo­ved to Swe­den to study at the Ac­a­de­my of Mu­sic and Dra­ma at Gothen­burg Uni­ver­si­ty. Na­o­ko re­cei­ved the «Best so­lo­ist pri­ze» in the Young Nor­dic Jazz Comets 2009 and the Swe­dish Ra­dio award «Jazz Cat – Newcomer of the year» in 2011. The trio has per­for­med in Scan­di­na­via, Eu­ro­pe, North Af­ri­ca and Ja­pan. This li­ne­up was con­stant un­til the fall of 2013, when Al­fred Lo­ri­ni­us jo­i­ned them, ex­pan­ding the al­re­a­dy vast pa­let­te of the trio with a rhyth­mic fla­vour that em­bra­ces the li­ste­ner.
