SOUTH KOREA: Emil Viklicky at the Jarasum Jazz Festival

Koreans will have a chance to hear Emil Viklicky, the patriarch of Czech jazz piano, at the Jarasum Jazz Festival and at three other separate concerts in Seoul from Saturday until Oct. 4.
The Once in a Blue Moon, Moonglow and Chunnyun jazz clubs will host the concerts of the European contemporary jazz pianist and his trio. The group is renowned for its incorporation of elements of Czech indigenous folk culture into modern jazz music, while combining elements of Bud Powell and Oscar Peterson with a deep infusion of Moravian soul.
