Saturday, January 4th, at 7:00pm, Jazzbird welcomes the Paul Cornish Trio! Featured artists include Paul Cornish– piano, Jermaine Paul– Bass, and Jonathan Pinson– Drums.
Los Angeles-based pianist and composer Paul Cornish strives to inspire freedom and collaboration in his music and community. Hailing from Houston where he was a student at the prestigious High School for the Performing and Visual Arts, Cornish was one of seven jazz prodigies worldwide selected to be awarded a full fellowship to attend the esteemed Herbie Hancock Institute of Jazz at UCLA.
Cornish was recently a finalist in the 2023 American Pianists Awards and the Herbie Hancock International Jazz Piano Competition. In 2021, received 18th Street Arts Center’s (Los Angeles) Make Jazz Fellowship and was commissioned by the Apollo Chamber Players to write a piece for string quartet and two voices commemorating the centennial celebration of Houston’s Library System. Currently residing in Los Angeles, Cornish has performed extensively across the globe with such notable artists as Joshua Redman, Louis Cole, Mark Guiliana, Snoh Aalegra, Terrace Martin, Thumpasaurus and HAIM.
He will be debuting original music from his upcoming album You’re Exaggerating with a world-class trio featuring Jermaine Paul (Gerald Clayton, Dianne Reeves) and Jonathan Pinson (Mark Turner, SEAL). You’re Exaggerating is a thought-provoking exploration of how our life experiences shape our perspectives and realities, inviting listeners to challenge and expand their understanding of what’s possible in their own worlds.
