Yaron Herman is a world class pianist and composer and is widely regarded as one of the leading musicians of his generation. Despite his young age he has toured every continent, presided over the jury of the Montreux Jazz Festival Competition, headlined television broadcasts in 39 different countries, collected numerous awards worldwide and was the first ever jazz pianist to play in the ‘Forbidden City’ in Beijing.

With a background of traditional Israeli music and the European concert hall music tradition, a short stint at Berklee College School of Music and his current presence in the Parisian music scene, Yaron has developed an unparalleled style of ’real time composition‘ and a wild improvisational flare culminating in a rare music form which is playful, cinematic and stunning.

Yaron’s latest album Alma was released in 2022 on Naïve Records and opens a whole new door for him. After ten albums, here he is, launching himself into the void and, for the first time, offering us an entirely improvised body of work, at once a staggering snapshot of the present and a rich mirror of his past.
