British jazz virtuoso Anthony Strong continues to capture international attention with his "old school" charm and swinging piano style, performing across major world stages as his latest album, On A Clear Day, gains traction. The acclaimed musician's recent two-night engagement at the Royal Opera House Muscat alongside vocalist Emmaline was lauded as a pair of "magical nights of jazz, elegance, and soul," showcasing both jazz standards and original songs to a receptive Omani audience. A graduate of the Guildhall School of Music & Drama and a former student at The Juilliard School in NYC, Strong's history includes supporting luminaries such as B.B. King before establishing a successful solo career defined by vibrant live performances and a discography that spans several albums and EPs including Stepping Out, Me And My Radio, and the recent Easy Sailing and Bring It On Home EP. Currently midway through his final 2025 dates—performing tonight in Bad Vilbel, Germany—Strong is now previewing a highly anticipated, unique collaboration with the Silesian Big Band and three Polish vocalists at NOSPR in Katowice on December 14th. Fans eager for new music in 2026 may have to wait, as he is focused on his current tour without any immediate plans for a new album or new tour dates announced for the following year.
