Lex Korten

**Lex Korten** is a New York-based jazz pianist and composer known for his fluid, modern approach to improvisation. A graduate of The New School’s jazz program, Korten has carved out a space in the contemporary jazz scene with his genre-blurring style, weaving together introspective melodies, intricate harmonies, and rhythmic spontaneity. His recent releases—like the contemplative *Canopy* and *Air Below Sky*—showcase his knack for balancing adventurous experimentation with soulful clarity, while collaborations like *Rogue* (featuring guitarist Jongkuk Kim) highlight his collaborative spirit. Whether leading his own projects or contributing to works by artists like Ambrose Akinmusire, Korten’s music feels both grounded and exploratory, like a conversation between tradition and what’s next.
