John Escreet is a musical omnivore. He has an equal interest for contemporary classical music as well as for Frank Zappa, dance, electronic and all sorts of jazz genres, like bop and avant-garde. The British-born pianist (1984) has been living in Brooklyn since 2006, where he graduated from the Manhattan School of Music in 2008. Escreet is a sought-after accompanying musician in New York, but he has also released a number of well-received albums. His created his latest project
Sound, Space And Structures with his working trio and the legendary British free jazz sax player
Evan Parker. This veteran (1944) was first influenced very strongly by John Coltrane but developed a completely singular approach over time. Especially his skill of circular breathing enables him to perform daring acts that are literally breathtaking for the audience.
