Pianist and composer János Egri Jr. has been an active participant in the Hungarian and international jazz scene since the age of 18; his playing is characterized by an open and natural blend of modern mainstream jazz, classical traditions, and influences from contemporary and popular music. His distinctive sound, technical confidence, and improvisational freedom have been praised by world-renowned artists such as Antonio Faraò and Tony Lakatos.
