About

[PERFORMANCE INTRODUCTION] If you're a jazz fan interested in authentic jazz, or a music enthusiast who enjoys pianist Emmet Cohen's "Emmet's Place," you may have already seen tenor saxophonist Jacob Cheng perform. In the New York jazz scene where exceptional young jazz artists from around the world gather, everyone is looking for that new, young artist who brings the latest "buzz." Even Emmet Cohen himself said that when he asked people around him "who's the next young guy?" he was immediately introduced to Jacob Cheng. Born in 2000 and now 26 years old, he is currently a next-generation star performer showing the most outstanding potential. In 2024, he won "Best Soloist" at DownBeat magazine's student music edition, and with his smooth, stable tone even in rapid passages, he has already captured the attention of jazz fans. Meanwhile, for audiences interested in Indonesia's authentic jazz scene, Kevin Yosua is already a familiar name. Keeping the torch of authentic jazz burning steadily in Bali, Indonesia, he is the founder and curator of Legato Jazz Club and is breathing new life into Indonesia's jazz scene through the Legato Jazz Camp and Jazz Marathon. The Kevin Yosua Trio is a jazz ensemble led by bassist Kevin Yosua, featuring Hansen Arif on drums and Rio Manuel on piano. Pianist Rio Manuel, also born in 2000 like Jacob, is a rising star symbolizing the potential of Indonesia's authentic jazz scene, and his distinctive light and bouncy piano playing brings smiles and joy to everyone. Known for dynamic interaction and sophisticated interpretation, the Kevin Yosua Trio made history in 2025 by becoming the first Asian band to win the New Generation Jazz Lab competition held in Switzerland and performed at the Festival da Jazz St. Moritz. The special combination of these three young performers infusing new energy into Indonesia's authentic jazz scene and Jacob Cheng, who is gaining recognition in New York, will deliver swinging performances full of authentic jazz feel and hot, energetic bebop to audiences who love traditional jazz. Performance Highlights! Point 1. Dynamic performances by rising star saxophonist Jacob Cheng, garnering attention in the New York jazz scene Point 2. The first Korea visit by the most outstanding trio continuing the legacy of Indonesia's authentic jazz scene Point 3. Familiar jazz standards that appropriately blend traditional swing and bebop
