“A talent to watch, with a surfeit of ideas, an unbridled spirit and bold, two fisted sense of architecture”– DownBeat Magazine
Alon Nechushtan is a fearless explorer of sound, weaving jazz, classical, and global influences into music that defies boundaries. A pianist, composer, and bandleader, his work spans from orchestral commissions to electrifying jazz ensembles, reflecting a deep curiosity and a bold, improvisational spirit.
A resident of New York City, Alon has performed at some of the world’s most prestigious venues, including Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, The Kennedy Center, and The Blue Note Jazz Club. His compositions have been commissioned by ensembles across the globe, from the Philippine Philharmonic Orchestra to The Tel Aviv Soloist Orchestra, and he has collaborated with jazz greats such as Donny McCaslin, William Parker, Dave Liebman, and Frank London.
With 10 internationally released albums on labels like Tzadik, ESP, and Enja, Alon’s recordings showcase his eclectic vision—whether reinterpreting Thelonious Monk, fusing jazz with Middle Eastern grooves, or leading his critically acclaimed piano trio.
