Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series with Colombian-born, NYC Jazz Pianist, Composer & Educator Holman Alvarez .. We talked to him about this new new 2024 CD Hidden Objects done with amazing musicians like trumpeter Adam O’Farrill, bassist Drew Gress & drummer Satoshi Takeishi. The record is influenced by his studies in philosophy and reading about Climate change. His piano influences are a blend of what he enjoys listening to: Lennie Tristano, Thelonious Monk, Keith Jarrett, Paul Bley, Andrew Hill, Chucho Valdés, Randy Weston, Craig Taborn, and Kris Davis to name a few. We get into his start, the journey to America and well beyond.
