Jeremy Monteiro

Singapore’s ‘King of Swing’ is one of the most renowned jazz pianists in the region. Famous for his light, bright improvisations, Jeremy Monteiro and his breath-taking performances have coloured the last half-century of Asian jazz. But records such as 2016’s Brazilian Dreams prove that he is a master of innovation with global influence. He may have countless albums, the 2002 Cultural Medallion and collaborations with the likes of Simon & Garfunkel and James Moody under his belt, but Monteiro remains true to his keen ear and the humility with which he approaches his craft.
