Clarence Jazz Festival in conjunction with Melbourne International Jazz Festival are proud to present GRAMMY nominated Japanese pianist - Makoto Ozone – TriNFiNiTY live for one night only at the Rosny Barn.

With a reputation for live performances that are “thrilling, virtuosic and unabashedly personal” (New York Times), Makoto Ozone is a unique force in both jazz and classical music.

Makoto Ozone’s 1983 solo recital at Carnegie Hall catapulted him into the international spotlight—launching a storied career that has included recording and touring with the likes of Gary Burton, Chick Corea, Paquito D’Rivera, Anna Maria Jopek and Branford Marsalis, as well as performing with an ever-increasing number of the world’s great symphony orchestras.

With an extensive discography, over 300 pieces to his name and countless other achievements—including the prestigious Medal of Honour with Purple Ribbon from the Government of Japan — Ozone’s artistry is truly something to behold.

In 2023, the 40th anniversary of his debut, Ozone formed a new trio, TRiNFiNiTY, featuring bassist Shimpei Ogawa and drummer Kunito Kitai. For the first time ever, Ozone will bring his extraordinary talent to Hobart, offering a rare opportunity to witness one of the world's most celebrated pianists in the intimate and atmospheric setting of Rosny Barn.

This is a truly unique musical event not to be missed!
