October Performance at Sumida Triphony Hall
A Japan tour has been decided for Jacob Collier, the genius artist who won two Grammy Awards in 2017.
Praised by titans such as Quincy Jones, Herbie Hancock, Pat Metheny, Chick Corea, and Jamie Cullum, what is it about his performances that captures such attention?

Since 2011, he has been releasing videos of his a cappella and instrumental multi-track recordings, garnering millions of views. His performances, truly deserving of the title "one-man orchestra," are his defining characteristic.
Both of his Grammy-winning albums, "In My Room" and "Pure Imagination - The Songs of Leslie Bricusse," have achieved bestseller status.
For this performance, the ensemble will feature approximately 50 musicians, centered around the Blue Note Tokyo All-Star Jazz Orchestra conducted by Eric Miyashiro, augmented by strings, woodwinds, brass, and percussion.
We eagerly anticipate experiencing Jacob's world, which will unfold on a grander scale than ever before.
