After years of dividing his time between New York and Brazil, following his heart and musical instincts, pianist, composer and arranger Cliff Korman has established his home in Rio de Janeiro. As a follow-up to his 2022 release Brasilified (which at present registers 800k streams), Bossas and Ballads (Tiger Turn, 2024) is his first solo recording made in Brasil, and reflects his love for adagios, and his interpretative approach of reharmonization and orchestration on the piano. He offers up an album of solo piano interpretations and improvisations.
