Third-place in the 2013 National Jazz Piano Award and a semi-finalist at the Bosendorfer Jazz Solo Piano Competition at the 2007 Montreux Jazz Festival, Australian/French pianist and composer Daniel Gassin is on a brief visit from Paris, where he has been based for over a decade. He has performed with many leading French jazz musicians, as well as visiting U.S. artists Dave Liebman, George Garzone, and Bob Sheppard. Following his successful 2023 Melbourne International Jazz Festival performance with his Crossover Band, for this performance he will perform in a trio format with Yunior Terry (bass) and Aaron McCoullough (drums). Presented by The Melbourne Jazz Co-operative: The Melbourne Jazz Co-operative is a not-for-profit organisation dedicated to supporting and promoting original live jazz performance by established and emerging artists in Melbourne. Since 1983 our objectives have been to increase the exposure of contemporary jazz performance by making it accessible to audiences, and to provide award waged performance opportunities for emerging and established artists. In addition to support derived from member contributions, the MJC is assisted by the Victorian Government, through Creative Victoria, via its Arts Development Programs. MJC was assisted by the Australian Government through the Australia Council, its arts funding and advisory body from 1983-2017 inclusive, and was delighted to receive Australia Council funding of $60,000 for our 2019 program. The MJC received $40,000 from the Australia Council over the 2021/2022 Financial Year, and was pleased to received a grant of $75,341 from Creative Australia (with Music Australia contribution) for our 2025 Annual Program. Our sold-out 40th Anniversary Concert at the Melbourne Recital Centre in May 2023 was supported by a $20,000 grant from Creative Victoria’s Creative Projects program.
