Yosuke Yamashita
Born in 1942, Tokyo, Yosuke Yamashita is one of the rare Japanese jazz musicians whose name is a household word in his native land. He is also one of the few to establish himself as a well-respected jazz pianist in Europe and the United States. This popularity is more remarkable given the uncompromisingly avant-garde style he adhered to. After riding the crest of 1970s free jazz movement, he has released over forty recordings, and played on countless others. Critics admire Yamashita’s explosive playing style, often compared with that of Cecil Taylor, as his own unique achievement.
The 1969 formation of the Yosuke Yamashita Trio made a huge impact on the jazz world with its energetic, free form performances. In 1988 Yamashita formed his own New York Trio with bass player Cecil McBee and drummer Pheeroan akLaff. In 1994 he was invited to the 50th anniversary concert of Verve Records, a prestigious jazz label, as a sole musician participated from Asian countries. In 1998 Yamashita made the film score for Shohei Imamura’s “Kanzo Sensei (Dr. Akagi)”, and by the achievement of this work, he received the “Education Minister’s Encouragement Award”, and other film awards. In 2003 he was conferred the “Medal with Purple Ribbon” from Japanese Government for his contributions to the arts and academics. In 2004, a revival performance of his 2000 self-composed Piano Concerto No.1 “ENCOUNTER” for Improviser took place in Turin, Italy, conducted by Yutaka Sado. March 2006, he played with a free jazz giant, Ornette Coleman when his group toured Japan. In February 2007, he has presented a duo concert with a master pianist in free jazz, Cecil Taylor. In January 2008, he did the world premiere of his third concerto “Explorer” with the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Yutaka Sado. In May 2009, he did the world premiere of the piano concerto No. 4 “Jazz” composed by Toshi Ichiyanagi. The same year, the Yosuke Yamashita Trio 40th Anniversary Reunion Live was held with an all-star cast including members from every generation of the group. In September 2013, he released his New York trio’s 25th anniversary album “Grandioso” from Verve, Universal Music. In February 2015, he made concert tour to Slovakia and Czech Republic. His February 2016 performance with the Tonkünstler Orchestra, held at Wiener Musikverein and conducted by Yutaka Sado, was a huge success.
