MINA CHOI QUARTET HALLOWEEN PARTY

Mina Choi Quartet 

Jojo's presents a Halloween party. Please join us for an unforgettable evening featuring the captivating sounds of a distinguished jazz quartet: Mina Choi on piano, Mark Ferber on drums, Ahmet Sezin on bass, and Ivan Malespin on trombone.

"Mina Choi, who was born in South Korea and has long been based in Southern California, is a talented pianist, arranger, composer and conductor. While she has been quite active during the past decade including performing at top clubs and a few jazz festivals, and working as an educator, "Stories" is her recording debut.

While the soloists in her band are all world-class, the focus is on Mina Choi's inventive arrangements. Although the influences of classical music and her Korean heritage are sometimes felt in her writing, the often-dense music is always modern jazz. Her originals in particular sum up her struggles and her optimistic attitude as an immigrant in Los Angeles."
