Richard Sears Quartet — Ft. Sandro Zerafa

- As part of the Jazz Sur Seine festival

Richard Sears is an American pianist and composer based in Paris. Sears has performed with the Billy Hart Quartet (ft. Mark Turner and Ben Street), the Muhal Richard Abrams Orchestra, Ravi Coltrane, Ralph Alessi, Eric Revis, Andrew Cyrille, Joshua Redman and other jazz artists.

In 2021, Sears moved from Brooklyn to Paris, where he was composer-in-residence at the Cité internationale des arts. Currently, Sears is a fellow of the American Composers Forum and resident at the POUSH art center in Paris, France.

"Discovered during a concert by his sextet in a Brooklyn club, with Ravi Coltrane, son of John, invited to play saxophone, Richard Sears has had our ear ever since. His young body of work is already proof of a singular musician."
