As the trumpet/piano “jazz dual-wield” virtuoso, Mao Sone, the new hero of the J-Jazz world, will make her long-awaited Billboard Live stage appearance, bringing her four-year-in-the-making full album, "Brightness of the Lives." With a top-of-the-class master’s degree from Berklee College of Music and a string of internationally renowned awards, including winning the 2014 International Trumpet Guild (ITG) Jazz Competition, Sone leads a superb ensemble. Joining her are longtime college friends: Mei Inoue on guitar, Ren Yamamoto on bass, and Hiro Kimura on drums—a gem of a group that foreshadows the future of Japan’s jazz scene. Enjoy.
