About

Born in São Paulo, Brazil, Eisenmann has always been intrigued with the idea of translating different musical sonorities to the piano. Eisenmann focuses on unique collaborations with artists from all different fields: dancers, poets, and actors. Among his latest releases, the 2017 album "The Free Poetics of Henrique Eisenmann" (Red Piano Records) has drawn unanimous praise from critics across the world. Eisenmann has performed in numerous international jazz festivals and has worked with dozens of outstanding musicians such as Gunther Schuller, Luciana Souza, George Garzone, Matti Caspi and Tom Zé.

Eisenmann is a professor of music at City University of New York (BMCC) and Jazz piano faculty at the New England Conservatory. His doctoral thesis explored the idea of free improvisation as an international phenomenon, using the music of Hermeto Pascoal as a model.
