Monks is proud to present Romanian pianist Sorin Zlat, joined by Houston's Woody Witt and David Craig, and Austin's own Daniel Dufour. Join us and the quartet for an intimate two sets of music @ Revival Coffee:

Georgian Sorin Zlat is an international award-winning jazz pianist, classical clarinetist, composer, and arranger. He started his performing career at the young age of thirteen when he was featured as a soloist with the Romanian Philharmonic Orchestra “Mihail Jora”. Inspired by his father and grandfather, two accomplished European musicians, Sorin went on to pursue a Master’s Degree in Piano Jazz from which he graduated Summa Cum Laude. As a young graduate, he created a repertoire comprising pieces of standard jazz and personal compositions, ranging through Latin and jazz, pop, and classical music, and which is orchestrated to reflect a unique interpretative style.

With musical influences from Dizzy Gillespie, Miles Davis, Thelonious Monk, and John Coltrane, his imaginative approach gained him instant recognition on the European and North American jazz scene. Among numerous other awards, he is the winner of the 2015 Jacksonville Jazz Piano Competition, the 2013 Monaco Jazz Competition, and two-time winner of the “Best Jazz Musician of the Year” in his home country. He was recently signed by the European Muzza Foundation and A&A Records under which he released his first album “Endurance”.

Sorin is touring the world as composer-pianist performing his original music and jazz standards, masterly interpreted in his inimitable style. A believer in continuously stretching his creative capabilities and expanding his knowledge, he is currently involved in numerous projects, from being commissioned for a jazz symphony to composing music for the film industry.
