Presented by Melbourne International Jazz Festival and co-curated with Jazz at Lincoln Center
Joey Alexander Trio + Young Monk (feat. Skylar Tang)


A celebration of jazz tradition, innovation and the artists shaping its future.
Curated in partnership with New York's iconic Jazz at Lincoln Center, this special Jazz Fest double bill features two remarkable performances: Joey Alexander Trio, showcasing music from the pianist's acclaimed latest album, and Young Monk — a celebration of the music of Thelonious Monk through voices of the next generation.
Joey Alexander burst onto the international stage at a young age and has since become one of the most acclaimed pianists of his generation. The multi-GRAMMY-nominated artist has graced the stage of Carnegie Hall, the Apollo Theater and every major jazz festival around the world, as well as special performances at the GRAMMY Awards and for Barack Obama at the White House.
Opening the evening is Young Monk, an international edition of the acclaimed Jazz at Lincoln Center project. Led by Joey Alexander, the ensemble also features New York trumpeter Skylar Tang, joined by some of Australia’s most exciting young jazz artists.
Duration: 2 hours 30 mins (incl. interval). Please note, running times are approximate and subject to change.
