Matyas Gayer \u2014 Classical and Modern Jazz Piano, Improvisation, and Tradition<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hungarian pianist Matyas Gayer<\/strong>, based in London, is one of the leading figures of his generation. Awarded from a young age, he has developed his own style and a distinctive musical voice, drawing from the grandeur of classical and modern jazz piano, combining respect for tradition with freshness and personality in every performance.<\/p>\n

A two-time finalist in the Montreux Jazz Piano Competition, Matyas<\/strong> has established himself on the London and European scene, performing at the most prestigious clubs and collaborating with musicians such as Eddie Henderson<\/strong>, Ralph Moore<\/strong>, Scott Hamilton<\/strong>, Rick Margitza<\/strong>, Don Menza<\/strong>, Jim Rotondi<\/strong>, Luis Bonilla<\/strong>, Jesse Davis<\/strong>, Deborah Brown<\/strong>, and Carla Cook<\/strong>. His repertoire combines original compositions and standards, reinterpreted with sensitivity and creative freedom.<\/p>\n

His training blends classical and folk roots with an early love for jazz: \u201cYes, standards are very important to me; I love playing the jazz tradition, but interpreting it in my own way<\/em>\u201d Gayer<\/strong> says. Reflecting on his earliest musical influences, he adds: \u201cThe first music I listened to was Hungarian folk, which my mother used to sing when I was a child. I studied classical piano and fell in love with Bach, Chopin, Bart\u00f3k\u2026 My father introduced me to some jazz records, and from then on, I wanted to improvise.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n

For this concert, Matyas Gayer<\/strong> is joined by five exceptional musicians to explore original compositions and jazz classics with energy, improvisation, and constant dialogue, keeping the spirit of jazz alive in every phrase.<\/p>\n

Why shouldn\u2019t you miss it?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Because Matyas Gayer<\/strong> combines technique, sensitivity, and creativity to deliver classical and modern jazz that honors tradition while sounding completely contemporary, turning every piece into a space for musical discovery and dialogue.<\/p>\n
