Melbourne Recital Centre: Josh Cohen – Radiohead for Solo Piano II
15 April @ 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm AEST

Master of improvisation, Berlin-based Australian pianist Josh Cohen takes on legendary rock band Radiohead in this live show of remarkably inventive covers from the group’s famous back catalogue – interpretations that have gone viral on YouTube with more than ten million views and counting.
Performing against a visual installation custom-built exclusively for Cohen by AV artist Joshua Batty of MindBuffer, the visuals are performed and improvised in real time, ensuring every show is a unique experience.
Although fiercely protective of their reputation, it’s not surprising that Radiohead gave Cohen the green light to release two official songbooks and perform their songs around the world. Audacious in his approach to music and innovative in his playing style that ranges between classical and jazz, Cohen’s skills are truly dynamic, instantly elevating these iconic songs to a whole new level.
