The Royal Conservatory of Music | Robi Botos and Friends
October 21 @ 8:00 pm - 10:00 pm
$85
Juno Award-winning Hungarian-Canadian pianist and the RCM’s inaugural Jazz Artist in Residence, Robi Botos, takes us on a trip through Roma-inspired jazz piano with the help of Joanna Majoko (vocals), Mike Downes (bass), Tim Ries (saxophone), Larnell Lewis (drums), and more.
Protégé of Canadian jazz legend Oscar Peterson, Botos blends bebop, swing, and modern jazz with eastern European folk music and classical music. His dynamic live performances and distinctive sound have earned him praise from Branford Marsalis, Chaka Khan, Al Jarreau, and many more. Said the late organist, trumpeter, and pianist Joey DeFrancesco: “Robi is one of the most swingin’, soulful, funky, world-class players I’ve ever heard, and he has a technique like you can’t believe.”
