Marta Sanchez brings a trio with two of the most outstanding musicians of the NYC jazz scene to Lunatico. They will play some compositions by Geri Allen, Carla Bley and Eric Dolply, among others. Marta came to New York in 2011 from Madrid with a Fulbright Scholarship to study for a Master's in Jazz Piano Performance at NYU. Since then, her quintet, her main project, has released three albums: “Partenika” (2015), “Danza Imposible” (2017), and “El Rayo de Luz” (2019). All three albums received rave reviews from the American press. Two of these albums, “Partenika” and “El Rayo de Luz” were selected by The New York Times as one of the 10 best albums of 2015 and Best 10 jazz albums of 2019. Her records have been praised by “Fresh Air”, DownBeat, WBGO, and many other outlets. She has toured the United States, Europe, South America and Central America, performing as a leader or as a sideman at prestigious venues and festivals such as North Sea Jazz Festival, Eurojazz in Mexico City, Eurojazz in Athens, Jazz Festival Vitoria Gasteiz, Winter Jazz Festival in New York, Madrid Jazz Festival and many others. She is a 2017 and 2021 MacDowell fellow.

“The pianist Marta Sanchez has one of the most quietly memorable groups in jazz.”— The New York Times
