Krisztian Olah Quartet ft Paul Booth Photo 1

Although still in his 20’s, the multi-award-winning Hungarian pianist Krisztián Oláh is widely regarded as one of the finest musicians of his generation. From a prestigious musical family (his father is the internationally acclaimed pianist/composer Kálmán Oláh) Krisztian already has a raft of Awards and recommendations to his name, including (but not limited to); Best Soloist at Jazz Competition of Marosvasárhely (2013), Finalist, Nottingham Solo Piano Competition (2014),The Vilnius International Jazz Competition-Creative Art Prize, the Junior Prima Prize and the Hungarian Jazz Prize of Gramofon Magazine (all 2015). In 2016 the Hungarian Jazz Federation elected him Young Jazz Musician of the Year, and in 2018 he was the first Hungarian to be invited to the international competition organised by the Thelonious Monk Institute in Los Angeles, featuring fourteen of the best jazz pianists in the world. Krisztian’s inaugural recording “At the Back Of My Mind” was inspired by this experience, while both his second “Oláh Krisztián Quartet –Crescendo” and most recent project, “Parallel Reflections” (an interplay between string orchestra and jazz quartet) have been received with considerable acclaim. Suffice it to say he is very, very good!

Tonight he will be appearing at the Club with his quartet, including the multi-award-winning Kalman Olah Jr-sax (Krisztián’s brother – a very talented family!) alongside a UK rhythm section of Calum Gourlay-bass & Andrew Bain-drums. And just to add even more interest their Special Guest will be the brilliant, premier UK saxophonist Paul Booth (Bansangu Orchestra, Patchwork Project, Steve Winwood)!  A stellar lineup and not to be missed. 

“Booth…Blistering saxist” Independent; “Paul Booth is...a pleasure to listen to.” Birmingham Post
