Award-winning keyboardist Keiko Matsui brings her mellow, almost new-age contemporary jazz sound to the new location for the Rrazz Room -- Live at the Rrazz at 1000 Van Ness -- for four nights. One of the most popular and innovative "quiet storm" jazz artists ever, Matsui ranks just behind Boney James and Kenny G in terms of sales. Matsui has become one of instrumental music's most distinctive and dynamic composers while reaching new heights as a concert performer.

Drawing influence from fusion players like Chick Corea as well as Asian and Western classical music, Matsui creates a totally unique sound. Her collaborations with husband Kazu (who plays a traditional Japanese flute called the shakuhachi) have been chart-topping smashes since Matsui's first album in 1987. The keyboardist will be performing fan favorites alongside selections from her most recent album The Road... for Shanachie Entertainment at these SF shows.
