Christian Sands Quartet

CHRISTIAN SANDS

Grammy-nominated pianist Christian Sands continues to win over audiences with his impressive credentials. His piano skills align perfectly with his artistic vision, leading to a fresh perspective on jazz music. He began formal lessons at age 4 and composed his first piece by the time he was 10. By then, he had already caught the eye of Jazzmobile co-founder, NEA Jazz Master Dr. Billy Taylor. An accomplished musician, composer, band leader, and educator, Christian has collaborated with jazz legends such as Wynton and Branford Marsalis, Dee Dee Bridgewater, and Christian McBride. Most recently, he received the prestigious title of Chevalier de L’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres (Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters) from the French Minister of Culture.
