I’m already really looking forward to playing at my favorite spot, Pit Inn, for three days!
On the first day, it’s the “Mikiko Nagatake Trio.” This year marks the seventh year of my regular trio with Orihara, who brings an unbreakable groove, and Kira, who understands my music better than anyone. I’m filled with gratitude for all of you who love our trio’s sound—a melodic and groovy sound rooted in jazz.
On the second day, we will welcome Grigoris Theodoridis, who is active in Europe, to Japan. Following a Greek tour that was cut short by a pandemic six years ago, our long-awaited collaboration will finally come to fruition. I am convinced that the watercolor-like transparency and approachability of his music will complement my compositions—which are influenced by Impressionism—perfectly. On drums, we will be joined by Masatsugu Hattori, who has been active across borders and has successfully toured Europe as a solo artist.
Day 3 featured the “Wayne Shorter Tribute.” Although I also perform his songs in a duo with Nami Kano, witnessing Nami soar with such boundless freedom was the catalyst for forming this quintet. Together with Hiroyuki Ishikawa, Daiki Mishima, and Ittetsu Takemura—calm yet powerful seasoned musicians, or rather, reliable mission specialists—we’ll fly as far as we can aboard the spaceship “Wayne Shorter.”
