Adam O'Farrill

Born:

Brooklyn native, Adam O'Farrill (b. 1994) has emerged as a “rising star as a player and composer” (PopMatters) and “a blazing young trumpet talent” (The New York Times). Coming from a rich musical lineage, Adam’s grandfather was the boundary-pushing Cuban composer and arranger, Chico O’Farrill; his father is the composer, pianist, and activist, Arturo O’Farrill; his mother, Alison Deane, is a classical pianist and educator; and his brother, Zack O’Farrill, is a drummer and composer, who also performs in Adam’s band, Stranger Days. Further shaped by growing up in the rich and diverse musical community of New York City, Adam has cemented himself as one of the most in-demand trumpet players in New York City, as well as internationally. He has collaborated and performed with the likes of Hiromi, Mary Halvorson, Anna Webber, Samora Pinderhughes, Kaoru Watanabe, Tyshawn Sorey, Mulatu Astatke, Rudresh Mahanthappa, Vijay Iyer, Stimmerman, Patricia Brennan, Son Lux, Micah Thomas, and Sunny Jain.

Read "I Dischi del 2024 secondo Ludovico Granvassu" reviewed by Ludovico Granvassu
