Sol Jang is a South Korean jazz pianist whose journey through music has taken her from the TV screens of "The Great Birth" to the stages of the world. A classical pianist turned jazz musician, Sol's early passion for jazz led her from Baekseok University in South Korea to the University of the Arts in Philadelphia, where she distinguished herself by becoming the first Korean student to earn early graduation.

After returning to Seoul in 2016, Sol immersed herself in the local jazz scene before moving to the Netherlands to further her studies and career. There, she formed the Sol Jang International Project, now known as the Sol Jang Trio, through which she channels her unique compositions, blending influences from her travels and experiences in Korea, the United States, and Europe.

2024 marks a pivotal year for Sol, as she releases her debut album '19-29' with Unit Records. The album reflects her decade-long journey in music, showcasing her growth, explorations, and authenticity through her music. It invites listeners to traverse the landscapes of her past, exploring themes of identity, belonging transformation, and the universal search for 'Who am I?'

With accolades such as the Women in Jazz Festival Competition award and the Jazz Prize of the City of Halle, Sol has solidified her status as an upcoming figure in contemporary jazz. Additionally, her contributions to the jazz community were recognized in 2023 when her project LAVISH won the prestigious Erasmus Jazz Prijs.

Following the album release, Sol and her trio will embark on a tour across South Korea, Germany, the Netherlands, Austria, and Switzerland, bringing their sophisticated and emotionally resonant modern jazz to international audiences.

In addition to her performance career, Sol has been an influential educator, working as a dance accompanist at ArtEZ Dance Academy since 2019 and teaching at ArtEZ Arnhem Conservatory since 2022. She instructs in highly specialized courses like HAP and the 'transfusion' elective band courses.

Whether performing as a solo pianist or with her trio or quartet, Sol Jang's music is distinctive and dynamic, characterized by its cinematic quality and lyrical energy. Her performances invite audiences into a world where each composition tells a story, crafted with both sophistication and heartfelt emotion.
