SUMMARY:Naturally 7
DESCRIPTION:“A cappella group” so vastly underplays the jaw-dropping audio pyrotechnics that Naturally 7 creates onstage that the group had to coin a phrase—“vocal play”—to accurately depict what it does. \nNaturally 7 is more than a tightly orchestrated collection of great singers. The group transforms each member’s voice into a human instrument\, effortlessly producing music of any genre. Its vocal choreography is perfectly interwoven\, and its sonic mastery was on full display in a series of unforgettable performances on the talent competition series The World’s Best\, during which Naturally 7 won the Group Music category and cemented its singular status among the planet’s musical elite. \nThis was only the icing on the cake of a still-vibrant 20-year career that includes three world tours with Michael Bublé and a sold-out shared billing with global phenomenon Coldplay at the Barclays Center.

SUMMARY:Joey Alexander
DESCRIPTION:A native of Bali\, Joey Alexander taught himself to play piano by listening to the classic jazz albums his father shared with him. Alexander’s father\, who was an amateur musician\, soon recognized his son’s gift for jazz\, as Alexander’s technique and ability to grasp complicated musical concepts were beyond his years. From there\, Alexander’s musical intuition flourished\, as did his love of playing jazz. In recognition of his talent\, UNESCO invited Alexander\, then 8 years old\, to play for Herbie Hancock\, who provided early support to Alexander’s budding career. \nThe world has since taken notice. At age 9\, Alexander took the grand prize in the first international festival jazz improvisation contest in Odessa\, Ukraine. He has been featured at festivals worldwide\, including Jakarta’s International Java Jazz Festival and the Copenhagen Jazz Festival\, and he has performed in gala concerts for Jazz at Lincoln Center and the Jazz Foundation of America.
