Yosuke Yamashita - Canvas in Quiet

Yamashita formed the Yosuke Yamashita New York Trio in 1988 with bassist Cecil McBee and drummer Pheeroan akLaff. In 1994 he was invited to perform at the 50th anniversary concert of jazz label Verve, held at Carnegie Hall, and was the only Asian musician to play at the event.
He is also known for playing a piano that is engulfed in flames while he plays. The audience is not in danger of being on fire, and neither is Yamashita as he wears a flame retardant suit. The pieces are improvised and he plays until the strings snap and the piano can no longer make music...
