Christian Sands
Christian Sands is an emerging jazz force. A recent Steinway Artist, he possesses pianistic technique in abundance, but it perfectly matches his conception. His use of understatement accomplishes a much deeper musical goal. He takes a fresh look at the entire language of jazz: stride, swing, bebop, progressive, fusion, Brazilian and Afro-Cuban. He says, “My music is about teaching the way of jazz and keeping it alive. Born May 22, 1989, Christian possessed an insatiable appetite for music. He was enrolled in music classes at age 4 and wrote his first composition at age 5. He received his Bachelor of Arts Degree from Manhattan School of Music

Amanda Suwondo: Revisit
by Mike Jurkovic
It's genuinely odd and oddly gratifying that a young native Indonesian whom, after traveling to LA to study with Tamir Hendelman, mentor in New York with Christian Sands, and who now calls the land down under home, can remind one of America's lost, defiant lilt and how badly we need to get it back.
