On rare occasion, Misha Piatigorsky performs solo piano concerts. Such a performance was recorded and released under the title "No Moon At All", captured at the 2016 TD Victoria Jazz Festival. It is with great excitement that Misha has chosen the Soapbox Gallery as his New York venue of choice to continue offering solo piano concerts. His love for the Yamaha grand piano and the intimate, yet concert-like acoustics of the room inspires Misha to dive into his original compositions and standards in a way he is only able to do alone, at the piano.

Misha is a jazz pianist, composer and producer, hailed by the Boston Globe as the artist who “beautifully merges the worlds of serious jazz and pop,” — Misha blends powerful melodies with unusual harmonic sensitivity. It's a sound with a deeply personal yet cosmopolitan dimension, reflecting his experience as a Russian-Jewish émigré growing up in urban America. The great-nephew of legendary cellist Gregor Piatigorsky, with international upbringing followed by international acclaim, he works in New York City to advance the modern jazz sound beyond the standards. He leads a number of projects including his Trio and The Sketchy Orkestra – his innovative ensemble some 20 people strong.
