An improviser and composer with his own distinct voice, Queens-native Oscar Perez has expertly combined the traditions of his Cuban heritage with straight-ahead jazz. A gifted pianist since age 7, Perez has shared the stage with jazz legends Bunky Green, George Russell, Curtis Fuller, and George Garzone. He received his formal education at New England Conservatory and Aaron Copland School of Music under the guidance of Danilo Perez and Sir Roland Hanna, respectively.
