Mikan ZlatkovichMikan Zlatkovich

If you watch Mikan Zlatkovich play the piano, the first thing you will notice is his uncanny mastery of the keyboard – the way he expresses himself with so much confidence, freedom, and creativity. He has the ability, through his strong improvisational skills, to bring his fellow performers, as well as the audience, into the moment, discovering unexpected harmonies, making music that encompasses the essence of what jazz really is. Among the jazz notables Mikan Zlatkovich has performed with are Louis Hayes, Curtis Fuller, Tony Scott, Clifford Jordan, Chet Baker, Ernie Wilkins, Ralph Pendland, Red Holloway, and Charles McPherson. McPherson describes him as: “. . . a very good musician. What I like most about him is his fire and spirit. He seems to truly have a grasp of the essence of jazz piano.”
